They do now. I was thinking of the Aero's in 19" with Black centers.

I had a set of IForged Evolutions on my Z-06. They were really nice rims. I've got a set of HREs on my Viper now. The HREs are better quality, finish, etc., but the IForged were nice too.

The main problem with them was customer service. They take FOREVER to make a set of rims, from my experience. In fact, I waited over 6 months to get my set, although I had one of the first two or three sets ever made for the C5 Corvette. I don't know whether they've made a set for a Viper yet; if they have, I haven't seen it.

Talked to a few people today and they all seem to be happy with the Iforged wheels.

I'm going to try them...

I heard that the IForged guys came from HRE. I think they actually use the same stuff. Great looking wheels!

They are just shy of $3k for a set of 18/19s for the Vettes. I paid way less because my buddy was a dealer for them.

Twinvipers: If you want, email me and I can give you a little more feedback from my buddy's point of view.

Be careful. I was contemplating the iforged for the NSX, but found out they weren't hub-centric and not suitable for track use. The old saying "you get what you pay for" came to fruition.

Best reagrds,

Ben

Also be prepared to wait a long time. There were know some vette owners that waited up to 6 months for their wheels. My viper was suppose to the first viper to have their wheels. After almost 2 months, they still never even had the parts to make them. I pulled the plug on the deal and bought HRE's.

I have 'em on my Trans Am.

Ordered them through an online dealer, took about 6 weeks from order to delivery, had no problems.

I paid $3050 for the 4 wheels, 18" high polished all around, with a custom lip size for both front and rear.
