you guys forgot one custom wheel company that probably has the best motorsport reputation mentioned in this thread: Fikse.

COR is the real deal that's who they are. They are in the same business as MHT and own the lathe/cnc machines that are used to cut for many companies out there.
Since they are the manufacturer, they don't spend very much time advertising just like how you don't see MHT spending $$$ on advertising either. |

I have no idea why Active Autowerke partnered with ADV that potentially hurt Active's reputation.
I'll feel more safe with VMR than ADV....

Alhough COR has a mill and lathe they are not in the same ballpark as HRE or MHT or even ADV1. MHT advertises probably more than anyone just not in this market. You know they make DUB spinners, Davin streetspin, and MHT forged. These are all machined on cnc machines. I will say this just because you own a couple cnc machines does not make your wheels better than someone who does not. Alot of what makes the wheels is the components used along with the engineering and finally the finish quality and how long it lasts. One of the above 3 things is what potentially caused the failure in this thread. The question is does it fall on ADV1 or a supplier. They have definatly made a fair offer to rectify the situation. |

I've always had a problem with all these million companies making wheels. It seems like you are no better off then just buying cheap replicas, at least those wouldn't burn holes in your pockets. It boggles my mind with all these people buying $7-10,000 wheels from companies that have been in business for 5 years or less. Either they are secretly being given away or there are more stupid people out there giving away their cash than expected. Furthermore, I would never EVER buy wheels from Jordan or a company which he is involved with. YET people continue to just surrender their money like idiots and then complain that they feel duped. Continue to make videos wearing Piquets that these suckers have basically bought for you.

Why does it matter how long a company has been in business as related to the price you pay? |

A small percentage of defects exist in most manufactured products.
I know the following are different instances but goes to show this sort of stuff happens. Here's HRE http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=331067 http://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/3...monoblock.html I'm not bashing HRE either but it just goes to show that it happens. I'm sorry to hear about your friend's wheels but I bent and cracked 22x12 wheels on my x5 before. I still run 22s regardless because they look good.

1. it was Tony was said he will update me! so I should be contacted! 2. a date was promised and delayed on this TYPE of serious matter , and you want me to keep asking myself when I am going to be shipped with anything. Hello?! customer service? are you guys on the forum just selling wheels or a part of it is service? 3. lucky enough Tony actually replied to my email about a full refund! nothing solid yet but at least an update! 4. no direct line for me on anything

FIKSE seems very good! I never got a chance to try them but I've always been interested.

Actually, most will tell you the exact opposite. If what you just said were the case, picking stocks would be damn easy. Likewise, no entrepreneurs would *ever* succeed. Almost every entrepreneur fails in his first venture - tons of stats to back that up - just google it.
