If you guys invested the same amount of time making wheels, as you do taking great photo's, you would have kept lots of customers.

Don't you think so, FORGED DST ?

seems like the case

Yes 360 is now under this Forged DST. They should really just get rid of the name of 360 and maybe people will forget all the nonsense that happen earlier



horrible move for Forge DST to keep 360's name or even relate to the company

The post in this link belongs to Ryan at 360 forged. He was the last person that I had contact with over there before I called the Credit Card company to get my money back, and he is still there. So, its the same crew. Buy at your own risk. I'm glad you got your wheels on time Ryan, lol!

not every rim style is equal when it comes to lip size... even though the offsets could be the same... So sometimes you need to bump the width of the rim up to get the same 4.5 lip someone has on a 11in wheel...

and the 305 is to fit under the fender... honestly, who wants more rubber than a 305 on the ground anyways? I ran 275 on 10.5in rim and the tire stretch wasn't bad at all! < if that is what you are getting at.

People who don't like wheel spin with high HP cars using street tire compounds.

The really surprising thing is that they still advertise and are sponsors on MBWorld. Even though they are supposed to be "turning things around" I really don't think most members here would buy anything from them.

Then to top off, they still use the 360 name which as mentioned earlier puts more of a nail in a coffin than the notion of past customers being made whole, company under new management, etc.

I don't wish bad on anyone, and people make mistakes, (myself included) but really?

Am I nuts or does anyone feel this way or follow the logic?

So I take it the order for these wheels was taken back in '06 when the customer took delivery of the car?

Tell Jordan we say hello.

I have no idea how a company can post claiming to be another when the Pics clearly show that you are 360 forged.

Knowing the drama and bad rep 360forged has on MBW. why would you even promote the product? If you rename the company why not rename the rims? It its due to brand recognition think about renaming the wheels because all we recognize is 360forged= trouble.

Danny or whoever this can be.

You have nice looking wheels. Even myself I would love to buy some. Why dont you address some of the posts regarding some of mud being thrown your way. Some people here would then purchase your wheels.

That is Jordans personal car. And I would also love to tell him everyone from MBW says hello but he is no longer affiliated with our company. We are under new ownership and are going to prove to everyone we are going to make it for the better with the years to come.

You are right we now do business as Forged DST as we now produce 3 wheel lines, 360 Forged, Modular Concept, and System Forged so that is the reason for our name change.

We at Forged DST know that coming back to the forums we have a bad reputation. We are here to prove to everyone that we are going to provide a quality product within the time as promised. Our new owners are bending over backwards to clean up everything that was left over from the previous owner. We have cleared up almost every issue we have had with customers with very few left which we are working with right now.

You will see with time that we have changed for the better!
