Default Factory wheels jacked!! Forged Performance to the rescue!!

My factory wheels were jacked recently on a Thursday night....big thanks to Sharif, Sandy and the crew at Forged for helping me out. The guys braved Atlanta traffic on a Friday around 6pm and loaned me some wheels. They even drove the car back to the shop for storage while I got the insurance stuff straightened out. In the end I got an awesome deal on some sweet Volks!!! RE30 Limited, 19x10 +22, 19x11 +25 with Toyo 245/35/19, 275/35/19.

Customer service was top notch, and their knowledge is unsurpassed. I can't thank them enough.

Yes, car needs a drop.....coming soon.

Wheel locks don't hurt, but will not stop the thieves. Only slow them down. I strongly urge the OP to get some type of garage/storage. This almost happened to me, but the locks slowed them down enough for the cops to show.

Rays lugs arent really the best for locks, get some bull locks they should hold up better

Looks good, I want those rims so bad, I have to head your way to get my car from Forged. I think I may buy them and try to sell my TA's.

dump it and you'll have a better peace of mind.. criminals will scratch their head about how to lift your car up. but if someone wants it; they will get it. just gotta make it harder for them.

i'd be the one stealing them btw; i have been drooling over these for a long time! =(
