So you're saying TSW offers great quality?

(I ask because I'm writing down brands and wheels so I can hand pick them in the future)

that's something i'm not sure of. the brands i know offer great quality i know are the following: HRE, Volk Advan, DPE and one more who's name i can't think of at the moment....now most of the brands i just mentioned are $$$$, but you get what you pay for.

Yeah I have been searching around and found "broken rotas"

Then some dude saying "don't hate rotas, look at these"

I can attest that ROTA has a good "business model" that is where it ends...I don't want to own a set and I won't own HRE either (I am looking @ F14 for my car now actually)

Well after all the failures a couple years ago, I just can't trust them esp when other companies emerged in the forged wheel market

was this the business or the integrity of the wheel that was being compromised?

i'm still searching for more companies that manufacture forged wheels, and hopefully come across one that isn't so darn expense.

One of the largest Dodge Racing teams were running HRE wheels, they have "breaks" and other wheel integrity issues from them on the track and had cars wrecking due to that fact.

It could have been a "racing" issue but I don't want that wheel on my car

The "forged" wheel market grew shortly after that so there are other options and (better imo) I also won't go to Iforged due to poor QC and CS issues.
