Good contacts for wheels HRE, I-Forged, Forgeline, CCW

Hey alley members, I wish I was inquiring about whom to contact for forged internals and a new twin turbo setup but I can’t keep the power that I have on the pavement with hard, old pilots.

After an extensive search on both sites, I have another boring wheel question. I have decided to go 19x10 in the front and 20x13 in the rear and narrowed my search to Forgeline SP3P’s, HRE 547R’s, I-Forged Classics, or possibly CCW 505A’s (according to the web sites, the I-Forged Classics and CCW 505A’s don’t even come in a 20x13 but I will be calling about this tomorrow).

It seems that both good and bad experiences have been encountered with every wheel manufacturer but that certain individuals seem to take care of their customers better than others. With that being said, I am asking for what dealers or whom I should contact with the above companies that gave you a good wheel buying experience.

I believe that my only two tire choices if I go with the 20’s in the rear are the Pilot Sport PS2’s or the Pirelli Rosso’s. If any one has any feedback on which would be better or another option I would welcome that as well.

I cant post on my experiences, but I figured I would post these pics for you. They're CCW SP600's. This combo is 20x13 in the rear and 19x10 in the front.

Very nice Austin. That is the look I am after. I haven't received a CCW quote but expect them to be less than the others. The downside is that I am considering black centers and I don't think that is an option on the CCW's.

What rubber are you running?

I will be happy to help if you want I forged. Here's a couple pics of my cars with them. I forged is the ONLY option if you want a 5" lip fwiw. Also from my experience with HRE vs. I forged the fittment and quality is F A R better on I forged. CCW is a great wheel but will require frequent polishing to keep the look up (as they are a polished finish only) *unless special ordered in chrome*

JonB @ PartsRack for Forgelines. He will also take your stock wheels in trade. The Forgeline SP3Ps have the black center finish option.

I have had much better luck with CCW than I Forged from both a quality and fitment standpoint...

I have bought numerous sets of both for different reasons.

Been a little disappointed with the quality of I Forged but they are making it right... customer service from CCW is outstanding...

just received a set of wheels from them for a custom wide fitment on my track corvette, they came in polished instead of black. CCW told me to run them at my track event and they would swap them out afterwards no charge.

Now that is service.

I spoke with John at CCW earlier today. Great price for tires and wheels and he is also only about 90 minutes away.

I just need to quit waffling and decide what I want. Talking to different dealers seems to have increased my indecisiveness but did answer some questions.

Meanwhile, I appreciate the input. Hope to place an order by the end of the week.
