Just got off the phone with the guys over at 360. While my post here wasn't really intended to throw fuel on the 360 fire that once was (really to find out whats up with my strange handling) I applaud the fact that they're personally reaching out to me to help rectify whatever problems I do have with the wheels and make it right.

They've agreed to cover shipping to their place so they can check out the wheels, see what went wrong and make it right for me as their customer. If they determine it was something my wheel shop did when mounting the tires, I agreed that the shipping costs would be on me, entirely.

Thank you 360 for stepping up to the plate with some killer customer service. So far, so good.

I have also reached out to Forged as my wheels have not been completed yet. I want to make sure I don't have the issues you are having. Got me all worried right now. And actually I went and got my wheels face to face... They are 2 blocks away from my office. Let me know what your out come is...and i'll keep you updated on what is going on my end. I think it's crazy that they didn't use proper parts to build you wheels.

I went through the same issues years ago with RacingHart 3 piece wheels.... Really pissed me off and just loosed about 4000$ on them....

What aspect ratio are you running no the 245 and the 305? I was having many fitment issues so I built a spreadsheet that calculates all kinds of ratios, front to rear and etc. etc.

I am guessing that one of your issues maybe 245F - 305R. The transfer case is very finicky.

Also, for handling 20 inch wheels are a nightmare. There are really no track set-ups for 20 inch wheels and they really do change the handling characteristics. PM me if you are interested and I will go through some of the stuff I learned. Some the hard way.

Cheers and good luck.
