True, but no matter what there will always be another thread started by yet another unhappy customer...

Also, not only do 360, and COR have the same caps, Modular Concepts does too. They even do the CF overlay. Does COR manufactuer both companys wheels?
That is an interesting point, but even better:

1. Are the prices the same? Someone verify this?
2. Are the designs the same? Check. See above post ^^
3. Is the customer service better at COR and MC? Need more input.

If all 3 of these are true, then people can circumvent 360 correct? W219CLS55 stated he had to call COR to get his rims after 6 months...

This is like Alice in Wonderland, tumbling further into the hole.

i think u have some very good points. why buy from 360 forged then?

the smartest thing i think 360forged (Jordan) did to get ahead of the other companys is that he takes beautiful, high quality, professional pics of his wheels on nicely modified cars to peak everyone's interest. when he 1st came on this forum and posted his pics, everyone was googoo, gaagaa over his pics. before u know it, people started buying his wheels in this and other forums as well in a very newly start-up wheel company.

I'm sure another new name is just around the corner, 360 Forged is now mud on this forum as well as others.

The internet can be your best friend or your worst enemy...Jordan, have you ever heard the saying "don't ***** where you eat"?

The presentation of his products are done very professionally. Too bad that's the only thing done professionally over there

Well, I am sure I will get bashed again for putting my 2 cents in.

I got great customer service from them when I got my wheels. Took 3 months and paid for them when I showed up. Yes, I am local which makes things a little easier.

As for all the Jordan and 430 comments.... I was there for 2 days and I have seen his staff and Jordan working very hard. If you work hard you can play hard hence the cars and other items he has. I for one do not judge people based on what the own..

To the OP, I am sorry in your delay...I hope it all works out in the end.

I think you are missing the point. Nobody has a problem with successful people owning nice things...buy a fleet of Ferrari's for all I care, just don't do it at the expense of unsuspecting customers. Hosing people to get ahead is no way to operate a business. If this were an isolated incident I'm sure people would give 360/Jordan the benefit of the doubt but this has not become a pattern, not just here either, other customers have complained on 6Speed Online as well, hell this is the 2nd thread in this section of this forum in a week, what does that tell you?

LOL, I deleted my original post and did a re-post so I could reduce the font size, but you replied too quick! Size 7 was a bit much, I figured size 6 would be better.

Still, I honestly want to know, at what point does the Admin have to admit there's a problem with this sponsor??? This is the third person in a week to have this same complaint. Paid, but never got product.

can i ask you though how come in the picture you posted of your car at palm beach super car weekend you car did NOT have 360 wheels.... if they supposedly helped you fix a flat after you went to their shop

Yeah but I judge on how humble they are once they get those goods. Jordan flaunts his toys like a 2 year old that got a new big wheel

Internet defender... if you say so its just my experience

Now, since you remember my last post so well you should have remembered that I left 360 going to the show at midnight when I had my blow out up front. My front rim got messed up so I left them all of my rims and put my CCWs back on.

They fixed the rim and repainted it in ONE DAY! and had me going back to Orlando on Monday.
360 is a member of another IB board thats over 10 years old and he has not had any issues thus far!!

People thought I lied about even being at the show, I proved that wrong as well...

I posted here because of my experience. Last time I posted was because people here thought I was Jordan which to say I am not..nor do I have a 430 in my garage..wish I did though..its a sick ride..if people want to flaut what they got then that is fine and it is there choice. People here can not prove he used there money to buy his toys...plan and simple.
