This is why I will only buy JWL certified wheels.

I hope for their sake they can substantiate their claims. But being in this business for as long as I have, my experience has been : once a fraud, always a fraud. There's nothing more valuable than reputation. And their reputation at 360 forged wheels precedes them.

One thing with the whole 360 Forged issue is that if the owner of ADV.1 is the same, I don't care if you change the name or create a new legal entity, the reality is the ownership and management is the same. ADV.1 keeps saying that their company isn't the same as or affiliated with 360 Forged but if it is the same owner...

If I'm missing something, please clarify.

we are a hard group to please arent we!

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

Spending $4,000+ on wheels gets personal

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.

lol I guess ADV.1 has no response.

They know they cant back up their responses and arent one of the elite wheel Manufacturers

I'm lovin my Volk's and HRE's!

then my job here in this thread is done
pathetic effort from ADV.1 in my opinion. And nearing 4k views, im sure the word will spread.

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.

I would have never bought a set of ADV.1 to begin with.

Sad because I say it again, they have great designs ...

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!

where is Le Man blue?
he used to provide so much info.

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

so much hate hahaha might just have to be hre or bbs for me

What an interesting thread. Our certifications are posted on flickr. We have high resolution ones in case anybody wants to copy them. Let me know.

Carlos

Now THAT is the right attitude!

BTW, do you have the same for your multi-piece line?

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