Awesome pics and set up. Glad to hear that 360 is doing well. Wasn't a big fan of the 5 spokes on Gs until you posted your pics, haha. Nice lip too, how's that mounted?

Since we got that out of the way, on with the thread.

On 04/28/2009 , I contacted Jon "Forged DIST" in regards to a set of wheels for the G37s through a sponsorship. After a few emails back and forth Jon agreed to it and we went ahead and placed the order in.

Wheel set-up was the following:

360 Forged Straight 5ive
20X9.0f
20X10.5r
Gloss black lips/inner barrel and Matte black face

Dispite all of the negative "360 Forged" threads, I went ahead, bit the bullet and placed a deposit on May 8, 2009 . Jon promised me a turn around time of 4-6 weeks and a promise date of 06/15/09. I knew the process of creating a wheel so the promise date was not bad at all, actually it would have been perfect since I had a car show to attend that weekend. Fresh wheels, fresh look. I was excited. I would touch base with Jon and he would as well, almost on a daily basis. If I ever needed anything (invoice) it would in my inbox within 24 hours. Also Jon called me a few times and left voicemails with constant updates on the wheels, which I very much appreciated. Again this was almost on a daily basis.

On May 19th, Jon called me and told me that wheels are out of machining and they would be ready in the next couple of days. I got even more excited. Mind you, the wheels were promised for 06/15/09 . Move ahead a few days, I basically get calls from Jon and Jordan telling me that my wheels would be ready by Thursday, May 28th.

On Tuesday of that week I began to search for difference shipping companies to overnight the wheels for a impromptu car show that I entered ( DUB show Detroit). FedEx quoted me $700, UPS $600 , USPS $580, ridiculous, I know, and I was willing to pay for it. I went ahead and called Forged DIST back and was advised by the receptionist that they have a less expensive way of shipping out the wheels over night. Sure as **** they deal with a company (DB Schnker - which I recommend) that would deliver the wheels to my door the next day for under $230 dollars, YES $230 OVER NIGHT, I agreed. I recieved the tracking number and began to count the hours. The shipping tracking site was awesome, it would update almost hourly.

Friday , May 29th comes around, I get a call from DB at 9:45am and they had given me a time frame of when the packages would arrive. Very nice people, and a very professional company. The driver got around here at 2:30, as promised and I signed away.

Cliff notes so far.

Order May 8, 2009
Recieved May 29, 2009
Three weeks to make and build

Ratings:

Customer Service = 10/10
Wheel quality = 10/10
Wheel finish = 10/10
Overall Experience with Forged DIST / 360 Forged = 10/10

I highly recommend Forged Dist / 360 Forged to any new customer, they are top notch and dispite what happened in the past they are fixing it all to make right.

Thanks to:

Jon, Jordan, ALL of the receptionist (sorry don't know your names), 360 Forged, Forged DIST, DB Schnker <--- Everyone needs to use this company, Grant (TegyAuto) from Xceedspeed.com for the photoshoot, my local discount tire they are amazing (Ford Rd in Canton ask for Chad).

Here are some pictures of when I received them:

All rivits are brand new, no "rust", fresh paint smell, packed nicely.












I have a 2008 G37S and I would like to get a drop put on it. I like hoe your car looks and I have purchased CF straight wheels from 360 Forged. I would like to know what drop you have because I don't want it to rub.
