What is the relative ranking of wheel makers??
it's a really subjective question Adrian - there are lots of great wheel companies out there, it just comes down to sticking with one of the bigger names (in terms of their motorsport use, etc) and finding a set that suits your style and budget.
BBS is not out of business, nor going out of business

In my opinion, the customize wheels are by far the best to me!
Id say:
HRE
Iforged ..i will not buy this because some of their design looks like it was copied from HRE...
BBS/Rays/Workwheels...out of all this wheels, i would say that Workwheels and Rays 3 piece wheels is by far has the best finish! For some reason, i think workwheels has the thickest clearcoat. Again its just my opinion...

i dont like the "player rims" like hre, iforged, maya, etc. From what i see in motorsports, Fikse and kinesis seem to be on alot of race cars. So is BBS, but the LM wasnt particularly light, although the new LM-R seems to be a good comeback. I think theyre hollow spoke and everything.

For me, it's providing the strongest yet lightest wheel on the market. So what is the "best" according to my specifications? Fikse hands down (there's a reason why so many big name race teams in the country use them). Rays makes some decent forged wheels, as does BBS. HRE and iForged target the aestetic market. I'm not a big fan of Enkei - albeit light, they're pretty soft wheels.
BTW has anyone heard of Vellano?? Their wheels are EXPENSIVE ($1600 PER) but look really nice.
