i don’t believe these are forged wheels.

it is possible these are only low pressure cast wheels.

lol i’ve done extensive research on ebay, i haven’t found any forged wheels in that price point, its usually around 2k and up and still have to wait 6-8 weeks for overseas shipping

Don’t forget about Tarrifs fees on top of that too.

Tariffs are no issue if the vendor prepays for them upfront. Always ask before buying.

yes, the wheels that were ordered on this post are from a vendor that makes forged wheels.

double check with OP, deviation01 but i think they paid $1100 plus shipping for a complete set of forged wheels.

Prices varied based on how custom you want the wheels to be but on average 1100-1300. I had an extra fee because I wanted the hallow design BBS offers which needed a special machine and took a bit longer etc etc. Some users went with 2 piece wheel so they paid more.

On positive news they replaced two of the wheels that had blemishes on them and should be getting them this Friday. I guess now I have some spares

For anyone interested the point of contact with the vendor is Jason Wu. He is telling me the size for 892M wheels is 20x10 ET25. Does anyone currently have these mounted in this size? I want to make sure I won’t have any rubbing issues
