I wouldnt compare them to either. HRE is a 3 piece wheel, and will obviously be priced higher than this 2pc BC wheel. And I cannot comment on IForged except for what I have read as of late.

Heres some more info for your inquisitive minds...

Advantages of BC Precision Wheels for Performance Vehicles

€ reduced overall weight for improved acceleration and braking
€ reduced unsprung weight for enhanced ride and handling
€ improved brake performance with increased air flow through spokes
€ corrosion protective finishes for enhanced aesthetics and ease
of cleaning
€ built vehicle specific and hub centric for unmatched fitments


BC Precision Wheels are a forged technical masterpiece that epitomizes the
company¹s quest for unrivalled engineering and design.


The well proportioned and elegant spokes with their carefully designed
modular cut outs were crafted for unmatched strength, lightness, brake
cooling and a subtle hint of aggression. BC Precision wheels are truly
³built specific² to optimize each individual vehicle application.


Each wheel is individually CNC machined, assembled and hand finished to fit
your vehicle to ensure maximum tolerances for unparallel structural
rigidity, performance and strength.


All BC Precision wheels come standard satin finish that creates a
fascinating contrast to the deep lustrous polished lip giving it an
undaunted Titanium look. Other finishes available are Polished, chrome,
black anodize, Titanium anodized.

And a little more for your minds to ponder.

BC stands for Boyd Coddington. Boyd Coddington Jr has stepped away from his role as president of Boyd Sr's company to branch off and use his years and years of experience of wheel building and designing to bring an exciting new line of wheels to the high end performance market. Looks like he hit a bulls eye. Nothing but state of the art technology here. This is a name you can trust, unlike other fly by nite companies. When you order a BC wheel you know you have many years of CUSTOM built wheel experience, and the customer service to back it up. No empty promises here. When you are quoted a build time...thats what it will be. If the demand is so extreme that the wheels take 2 months to build...then you will be told so, rather than having to jump through hoops to only find out youve been delayed over and over.

Discount Tire Direct has taken the initiative and pre-ordered some of these wheels. The 1st wheels to show up in stock should be here in a couple weeks.
18x9 , 18x10, 19x8 & 19x10. We will have some satin silver, some full polished...and all with aggressive offsets for those of yo who love lips. Yes, Ive been paying attention to you and passed that info on.

Are these what youve been waiting for?

prices are near the group buy prices for iforged so if we have to pay full price there wouldnt be much incentive to buy the BC...any chance of a group buy discount?

Considering Iforged never sold anything at retail...lets consider their group buy price their retail price. Either way..BC came in under that. You wont match the quality of this wheel for the price anywhere.

a 19x10 +25 bc05 has approx 3.5" of lip

Im sorry...there is currently only One set of these in the country. The initial release hasnt even happened. There is not even a reason to talk about a sale yet. These wheels are very competitively priced and as I said there is no substitute for the quality.

Could there be a 350Z group buy? Sure, eventually.
