Thumbs up My Igorged arrived.....Happy Times

For anyone interested, my Iforged Flux arrived on Monday, the 19th. I was told 5-6 weeks for delivery and I had them in 28 business days so I have no complaints. I ordered through Paul at Avalon Racing and let him handle the order and communications to Iforged. Everything went like clockwork and the wheels look really nice. I had read everyone's accounts of good and bad relations but I really wanted these wheels and my impressions from speaking with Paul (with whom I've done business for a long time) was that they had addressed a lot of the issues and growing pains they experienced early on, including relocating to a larger facility. I knew I was taking a chance, but you do that with any purchase.........it is just magnified on something highdollar like a set of quality rims.

I know some others are still working on getting issues resolved (another reason to use a vendor over buying direct) and I pray that you are satisfied in the end. This isn't a fanboy post at all, just letting everyone know that I had a great experience and would reccommend both Avalon and Iforged based on that alone.

Take care.

They are all the same wheel, a rear 18x10 with a 4" lip. I'll post pics of the front 18x9 with a 2inch lip when I take some.....

the weights came in at 21 and 22lbs for 18x9 and 18x10

Congrats on your order Moog. Can't wait to see the 20's

Congrats on the new wheels. That 4" lip looks sick!!!

I ordered my Iforged Evo's also in the brushed aluminum directly through Iforged exactly 29 days ago (not business days). Hopefully, I should be getting them fairly soon. Not certain on a status, as I can never get a hold of anyone at Iforged.

I have to agree. If you start counting days you'll go crazy waiting on the rims. once the first few days past it got really easy up until the 3rd week....then I started fiending and dreaming again.
It's worth the wait.

Thanks for the comments guys, if anyone else has any other questions or comments. Post away.

I would have to agree with you on that one..... They always take care of the customer and Paul is very thorough in what he does. That's why customers come back.

You and me both....

Wheels look good Josh, they should look nice on the Sunset, I hope to see them in person sometime soon.

They look nice. Let us know if you have any clear coat falling off in the next 3 months. I have no doubt that Paul will take care of you. Just will suck to spend the $$$ on something with low quality. Good luck.

Thumbs up

I went with I forged thru Paul at Avalon and fronts arrived today and Paul said the rears will follow.

Excellent customer service and rims arrived about a week earlier then quoted.
