WTS Iforged 19" seneka's as is...
They were supposeldly made specifically for my C32 but the back rubs and the fenders would need to be modified unless no one ever sits in your back seat. The tires are falken FRK451 (235/35/19 & 265/30/19) with about 1000 miles on them. I ordered clear coat on the wheels, but Iforged unfortunately uses saran wrap for their clear coat so I have methodicly peeled most of it off which means you must shine them occasionally. There are no scratches or dents on the wheels but there is a small shake between 50-60 mph. It may need balancing or just made up to Iforged ****ty standards. Anyhow don't expect any help from Iforged because they lie and won't back up their ****ty products. But that being said unfortunately this cost me $4k and I am willing to sell for any reasonable offer, ie CHEAP! I am in Sarasota, FL.

Wow, that is really sad to hear about IForged, I didn't realize their quality was so poor.
Nice wheels Brunelleschi!!! :p

4 wheeled car.
IForged is good. HRE gets their problems too but owners that spend $6k on them are too ashamed to ***** about it in public. Anyway, Iforged has a warranty so if the clear coat ****ed up, they would fix it. And the wheels make are perfect fit. I have IForged, and have many friends who have them and zero problems. You don't hear people that go and post "OMG I HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH IFORGED!" or HRE, or AMG or whatever... you only hear (on forums) people who ***** about things. Do you read stuff about people that go "omg my c32 is awesome, it's perfect and nothing breaks!" no. You hear "dude, my ****ing window regulator ****ed up" "my s/c clutch needs to be replaced" etc... does that mean Mercedes is ****? Come on...

Whatever you say Doctor, I made attempts for those lying *******s to fix it and they said NO, and I must of hit a curb. Even my Mercedes dealer laughed at the quality of the clearcoat and could see the rears offset were off by about 3/4".

Hmm...i heard that i forged made some really good wheels and they are comparable with HRE. I think that some people had their bad experience and share to the whole world as if everybody had the same problem. I agree with the what the dr said not every HRE buyer would scream when they are getting bad products. Remember some of the factory might have a faulty product and i guess that you are one of those unlucky people.

its fine that a company makes a less than perfect product sometimes, but, they should at least stand by their product and offer after sales support...

We dont need to talk about iforged...
.. anymore. Its been posted and discussed many times on this forum and many other forums. This includes quality of their work, customer service, and their turn around time. Just search for it ... after you read all about Iforged and the craptalk and rep they got from day 1 ... then you'll see why so many people complain about them.
