360 Forged and Adv.1

I have seen a few threads about people's experiences with 360 Forged and the spin off company ADV.1. I havent seen anything recent but wanted to find out if anyone has new info or is still not a good idea to stay away from these companies? I was thinking of getting a set of ADV.1 wheels.

TIA

Jordan’s previous problems shouldn’t happen again since he is using a different wheel manufacturer and sales are being handled by vendors with a reputable history like GMP. I got a set of the ADV10.1s from Matt and the fit and finish is excellent and got them within the promised delivery date.

Hey Ima55r2,

Can you shoot me pics of your car with the ADV's? Is Matt @ GMP Performance?

Yes it is Matt at GMP. I have the wheels on my Cayman turbo.

I got the kit from TPC Racing. My dyno showed 408 rwhp, a little less than the advertised 485 at the crank with a 15% loss.

I have a pic off of another car with all the same pieces.

Nice Cayman. How long did it take to get the wheels? I was looking at the 5.1's in black for my black 09 E63.

They hadn't made a set for the Cayman but Matt said it would be 4 to 6 weeks. They arrived in just under 4 weeks.

Thanks. It was a lot easier to turn in my E55 with the Cayman already in the driveway.

Thanks for all the feedback. Sounds like they are trying to change their reputation.

I'd like to buy some rims from 360 as well but being that i'm in CA and not FL am concerned due to their history. Could we start a thread for anyone that has purchased wheels from 360 as of late 2009 and 2010 to post so that we can hear about their recent experience? Is there a moderator that can help us out?

You should get blanks from Volk in proper offsets and drill them 5x112
