Come on John and you dont think 360 copied styles from others? It may not be verbatim but they all somehow try to mimmick others. Why not cite HRE who has been making wheels a lot longer. 360 has been around what all of one year or a little longer (at least here) and they make some pimp *** wheels but they arent the pioneers and neither is this company but at least they are providing yet another wheel option for members and owners of cars here.

all you guys are making valid points. in my opinion, there's only so many variations of a performance wheel that can be made. a lot of it comes down to the restrictions of having to hold the load of a vehicle. for example, full faced wheels allow more creativity put into the design being that it's a strong wheel regardless of how it looks. this is not the case when your trying to keep it light for performance applications.

Your eyes are in question or you can't freaking count! 12 spokes no bolts vs. 10 spokes with bolts. Use your fingers to count if you have too!. The 360 Spec Multi:

I keep trying to count the spokes, but run out of fingers at 10....doesn't look like I will ever get the answer.

Interesting design. But it kinda reminds me of the white-wall tires on lowriders...

pinstripe on the lips is sick, nice idea but they don't look straight

Nice wheels. Not feeling the white lips though.

Everyone copies each other, whether it be a little bit or most of the designs, it's just how it is. There can only so many designs for wheels.

From BBS, HRE, Kinesis, Iforged, DPE, CCW, now 360 forged, Modular....I mean, even for tuenr wheels, some designs overlap one another....

Performance, luxury and forged wheels all seem to have similarities plus forged rim makers probably want to make wheels that don't go out of style the next year. Something that has a bit of classic, sporty and endearing long lasting style and design instead of fad of the year.
