Forgeline VX1 forged rims in any colour. Example shown straight silver

I'd suggest only for those with BBK. The view you get from that wheel would be spoilt with OEM brakes....

Any colour around $1650 USD per corner. Forgeline do not make flowcast wheels. This is a premium monoblock fully forged wheel at the same level as the HRE P101 at around $2300 USD. I know how good the brand is having owned a set

Well the spokes are the same type of pattern, so if you are looking at the style rather than an exact match they are similar, but you are correct they are a forged wheel and are much slimmer and lighter, the centre and outer rim look different

There are plenty if 359 knockoffs in a flowcast/flowform type but you would have to be sure of the quality, I've seen a set of wheels fracture on a track day, lucky it was picked up in time before a failure occurred. The cheaper knockoffs are not worth the risk especially if you ever track the car.
