Yeah... it kind of takes on a mob mentality around here sometimes doesn't it.

Spending $4,000+ on wheels gets personal

If I'm missing something, please clarify.
You basically got it but here is a better explanation...

Timeline:

1) Jordan opens 360 Forged
2) 360 Forged is sold to Forged Distributing
3) Jordan opens ADV.1

*Jordan has nothing and has never had anything to do with Forged Distributing.

* Right now ADV.1 and 360 Forged have nothing in common other than being in South Florida.

I agree. That's pretty sad for a company that claims they have the testing and certs yet can't produce them when asked and/or challenged. Personally, I'll never buy a set of wheels from ADV.1.

Guys we've been more than a little busy preparing for a little international auto show taking place next week called SEMA to be spending time arguing on the internet. As we stated before we are not posting up testing certificates because they are too easily copied and forged... if you doubt this try and find a single other wheel testing certificate publicly posted on the internet. There is a reason why people haven't posted this kind of information before and why we aren't going to start now.

As we have stated numerous times this testing material is on hands a readily available to our dealers and our customers who require them for a purchase.

All the best!

i bought wheels from some company volk. they made these bling wheels, RE30 diamond black- it has so many stickers on the wheel and now i know what they mean.
No wonder i couldn't these wheels in 20in. i tried so hard, oh well. i guess i will have to live with it for now.

The venders basically ran him out of here for calling out venders/sponsors.

my MORR wheels came with the testing results...is this really that big of a deal to post your testing results? Anything can be copied, posting that document online isnt going to prevent someone from making a fake certificate someday

I'll post a photo of them shortly

Carlos, post them up just to show companies like ADV.1 how a truly transparent wheel company conducts itself.

Wow, you now have enough documentation to start you own wheel company and create TUV certs for all of your wheels and vehicle applications

See how absurd that sounds when you put it into words...either a company has testing reports and wheel certs or they don't. I know which wheel manufactures I'll continue to buy from and the one(s) I'll stay far, far away from.
