I have iForged Daytonas in a custom balck pearl finish. The only bad thing I can say about iForged is that their customer service sux, but besides that everything else is great. The wheels fit perfectly, you can get a 5 and 6 inch lip, almost any6 finish you want. Very easy to clean the spokes, the lips need to be polished every other week. At least thats what I do. And the best thing about them is that they are incredibly strong. I live in NYC and I have hit some pretty bad pot holes. Never once tho did a wheel bend. As far as weight goes, i have 20x9 and 20x10.5 and I beleive the rear wheels are about 26 pounds each and the fronts about 24. I am not sure tho. Thats what i remeber seeing on the ups box, lol.

Thanks for the feedback... it's very helpful.

I've got the same concern regarding potholes as I live in Dallas and roads are not exactly great. What profile tires are you running up front?

245/30 or 245/35? If you're running 35, then I understand that's a larger diameter than stock and would throw off the VDC; does it?

Thanks.

The fronts are 245/35/20 and the rears are 275/30/20. Your vdc will not be thrown off. Only thing youll have is the little tpms light on almost all the time. Although mine seems to shut off once in a while and comes on after about a 20 mile trip. Youll be fine trust me. And as far as pot holes goes, they are actually really strong wheels.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess the TPMS light comes one because it's looking for a different tire pressure in the front wheels? Can that not be recaliberated?

Also, are you lowered? If so, with that additional 0.75" of diameter in the front over stock, how badly does it rub?

I like the new TE-10's Iforged. They look similar to the 37's, but i like the concave look

I gotta agree w what JdmG is sayin' look at all 3 in person and get the one's you fall for. I was in the same situation - all 3 were on my list but I went w the Iforged. Not because I think they were better but because they were more rarely seen than the others and I got a SWEET deal from Automod's here in a group buy. I REALLY had a thing for the Winnings but they didnt come in 20's. And I must admit that everytime I see flix of AHero's Works, I 2nd guess myself - and I only have 20x10 out back, Im missing out on that .5 inch (size DOES matter ). All in all though I like the choice I made. Its a toss up
