Iforged wheel Quality issue!!!!

I recently ordered 19" Iforged Neo. I didnt know about quality issue until my friend told me. The wheels are easy to get bend is what i heard from many people who had iforged wheel. And their customer service's reputation is not good.

For thoese who owned or currently having Iforged wheel on your car,

please tell me how the quality is. Iforged wheel is not cheap brand. I want to get what i invested for.

Please let me here your words. Also, do you suggest other brand?

thanks

I've warned many people several times before, but no one would listen.

Lets just say the only expensive rims I would ever buy would be... WORK, BBS, HRE, and DPE.

I have Daytona's and have no problems with them. In fact, many people have various designs without any problems, while some do. It's the same with any brand if you search hard/long enough; you'll surely find someone with a complaint.

As far as bending? Any wheel will bend if you hit a large enough hole, forged or not.

I can't speak of their customer service since I haven't had that experience yet, knock on wood

Besides, you haven't even gotten your wheels yet, so why not reserve your judgment until you do?

Iforged quality is pretty much hit or miss. Some people have no problems at all and some have problems since day one when the wheels arrive.

I've had no problems with my neo's in terms of them bending just drive carefully and they will hold up fine! wheels aren't invincible.

Yes, I dont know about their quality at all since i didnt use them yet. But i paid for $3000. And some people warned me about the fact that they experienced, but sure i dont know how they drove either.

you know, i want to be sure for everything. no offense against Iforged

I have iForged Monaco's and I have no problem with them. As Soni said, any wheel will bend or crack if you hit a bad enough hole. Generally speaking deep dish wheels bend easier becasue of the lack of support over the lips.

+1 on these comments. I have had no issues. I have 20s and this weekend I hit a pothole and said oh shit. Even my wife said ouch. Pulled over and inspected the wheel and it was fine. Took it out for a spin and hit 125mph+ and wheel was still perfectly true
