Default Just Ordered my iForged Flux

Hey guys,

Been kinda lurking for the past month or two.

I'm super excited, I just ordered my iForged Flux wheels in 19's from www.howeyindustries.com

Def the best price out there for these by far. Anyone have these wheels? I'm just super stoked to be getting them and have only seen a handful of Z's with them. Sizes are: 19x9 / 19x11

I don't have pics yet because the wheels are being made. I also selected some custom finishes that no one on my350z has... I had a picture request in my post because these wheels are rare on a Z.

Way to jump all over someone for nothing...

"On order" does not count. They must be on the car.

What offsets did you order?

I would have probably waited until I had the wheels in hand before making a thread to be safe from the flaming

Wow, it's been a long time since I heard anyone talking about iForged.

As far as I know iForged is legit. Haters gonna hate... I'm sure once you get your eyes set on iForged it's hard to think of anything else on your car..... same can be said of any high end part

That wheel design looks like the classic HRE design.

Meh, gotta be honest man.. youll see a set of 22 in Iforged in my signature.. and it wasnt just the fact they were 22s that made them heavy as ELEPHANT *****. I mean they are nice, but 3 piece are heavy as sin man. Sorry to rain on your parade n all, but youll notice them on the car for sure. Wont be as snappy, and youll surely loose a MPG or two.

the 22x11s i ran were almost 40 lbs w out tires.. totally inexcuseable for as expensive a wheel.
That steel is super heavy stuff, and thier centers are pretty thick too. .....and thier Forgestar is by far much much much lighter.. as I can attest to as I got rid of the 22s and bought F14s. They feel incredibly light. The wheel barrel feels like its aluminum.

Surprised to see this thread.... I got these back in 2003 in 18x10's (two piece version) and they are 18.5lbs a piece.

Here are some ranadom shots on my Z to try and save the OP's thread... they look small once I added the Nismo side skirts...

iforged was all the rave back when the 350z 1st came out in 2003. they still look pretty cool, but i've heard more ppl say they were super heavy rather than light.

does iForged allow you to select offsets yet, or are they still secret, even to the buyer?

I had two sets of IForged on my bmw. Both had issues with the finish and they bend SUPER easy. I made it a point to stay away from them with my Z.
