Check out these guys...
I was just referring this company to Sir Boost this evening.
www.finspeed.com ...made in the USA and have great designs. they are forged and cheaper than any other forged monoblock Ive seen. No cast, rotary forged or flow forged.
I just found these today. We need more wheel companies like these
ADV1s are overrated and have poor customer service. What your paying for with ADV1 is the baller lifestyle
YOu really want chinese rims?
Do you know what ADV1s degree is in? Marketing! It sure as hell aint business.
If he was truly the businessman, im sure he could have ponied up for a booth at SEMA instead of renting a penthouse on the strip and parading his wheels there.

I don't think I've seen any more fanboy-ism or love for reps/random *** backyard wheel companies as much as MBWorld. I see so many people rocking stuff like Vossen, Stance, Vertini, Mandrus, bla bla bla.
Come on folks, you drive AMGs! Get some legit BBS/Work/Rays/OZ/HRE/etc/proper TUV approved and quality wheels from a company that didn't come into existence last year.
But, to each their own.

I'm in front of my computer now instead of my iphone on the crapper so i w=really wanted to type up this response.
Anyways you claimed in your first post you wanted to spend upwards of $5k of a set of wheels bc they have concaveness and a lip. I do my best to steer people away from the trendy wheel companies that outsource their manufacturing or spend more on marketing than do wheels. I'm not trying to stop their business but i believe wheels like those are for the tuner crowd.
The Concave fad is going to be over soon. And that's it...its just a fad. Why put these heavy wheels on? Esp if you have the money to spend. The stance/vossen wheels are the wrong type of wheel. Get a set of HREs or BBS's.
If your hung up between a Stance wheel and a ADV1 wheel, then i have a feeling you really don't know what you want and you're going to waste your money anyways. Isay that bc its odd to find a member shopping for a set of expensive wheels one minute and then find another set for thousands less which he gets excited about. That tells me your not concerned about manufacturing, details, reputation. etc...Granted i have no evidence of Stance wheels failing but if you really have that much money to spend, dont get those wheels. Don't fall for the marketing hype.
I have vossens on my daily..i drive on them every day. I bought them wholesale so i really didn't lose a lot of money. I sold my old Falkens rims which helped offset the cost. They look great (as boat anchors) but every day i find a new rock chip or defect in the finish. Its really disappointing. Every time i get my wheels rotated, the machine chips the paint at the bolt holes.
My advice to you.......Buy a rim that is worthy of the marque.

^ I got ya I never really heard about stance an it looked fairly nice on the black 55 that's why I ask about quality. I never cheap out when it comes to my car I always try to buy quality items. Thanks for the advice, I honestly taught adv1 were quality wheels but this is why I ask, don't want to spend 5k plus on wheels that gonna look like sh*t an have sh*t for quality finish. I just sold my old hre they were 542r so I am familiar with there quality, can some photoshop some hre wheels on my car if that not asking to much. What you guys think about iforged? I also like this style. Keep the honest opinion coming fellas.
