Hello CF,

I realized I started posting in here without a formal introduction so here it is.

We know everyone is getting tired of anything from Miami, but yes we are from Miami. However, we do not make any wheels nor do we have any ties to any wheel company. We are here to fill a void. That void being offering wheels from wheel companies that aren’t mainstream (BBS, HRE, etc). We want to offer something new to the online community.

We intend to stay a small business so every customer feels comfortable calling us at 11pm; if needed. We will strive to have NO working hours. Our working hours will be all day everyday.

With that said as of right now the site isn’t 100% operational, but wheel line pictures are being uploaded to Facebook and Myspace for your temporary viewing pleasure.

We are on AIM, Skype, cell, email…basically if you want to reach us we will be ready.


As of right now we are representing the Forgestar, ADV.1, and VMR wheel lines. There will be about 4 more lines included in the near future.

As of right now ADV.1 would be our only offering to the Cadillac group as neither other option is offerent your bolt pattern. Hence all the ADV.1 info below :)

We also offer powder coating for anything you want.


Some information on the wheel lines:

Forgestar-

1) Flow Formed Cast wheels (stronger than regular cast…basically in between a forged wheel and cast wheel in regards to strength and weight)
2) Clears Most BBK
3) 1 piece

Model F14

VMR-

1) Cast Wheel
2) Currently no fitment for Vettes

Wheel Line up
http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/ac149/wheeladdicts/12345.jpg

ADV.1-

1) 100% Forged
2) Fully customizable to any fitment, color, etc.
3) Powder coated
4) 1 piece and 3 piece offerings
5) Lightweight

Good looking wheels...

Thanks...if you get a chance to talk to them, please ask on the max width vs. max wheel size (20, 21, etc).

Thanks again.

Ok so what is the max tire width front and back? Can we get a 305 or better in back. maybe get the 285s in front. just love the wide tires

Love the wheels, but the MSRP is crazy. That is more than the standard 360 Forged price, and yes, ADV.1 is manufactured by Forged Distributing (360 Forged, Modular Concepts, System Forged). They make amazing wheels and now that Alain is back running things, they seem all good again.
So what are some intro pricing to get these wheels on some V's?

Unless you are not lowered at all those tires sizes wont work (even then it will be tight)

Best sizes would be 255/30/20 and 285/30/20...

These wheels are not manufactured by Forged Distributing (call Alain if you have a doubt). FD uses Cor to manufacturer everything. The company cutting these wheels is not anywhere near Florida nor California. They are made by the same people who make the OEM Lambo wheels...This is why ADV also offers the only aftermarket wheel that will fit a Lambo LP640 with no spacers or centering rings.

Quality is on a different level.

Nothing wrong with FD quality but they have nothing to do with each other.

Intro pricing is coming soon :D

I will be up your way this weekend if you want to see them in person.

My apologies...
Another website had this listed, "ADV.1 wheels by Forged Collection".

Sorry for the confusion, but definitely interested in seeing some intro pricing. These wheels are seriously sweet.

That Sucks. i want some wide beefs. the 30s seem to low Pro. 20" is ok as i would like the gap a bit smaller. Oh... My car is not lowered.
Ok some schooling is in order here. I forget (and i used to be a tire changer as a kid) Can you please give the meaning of the dimensions. For Example 255/40/20 255 that is millimeters across i thought. But the 40Mil (by ruler) looks very small for the side wall. 30 is even more ridiculously small.Is this right? And of course the 20 in inches diameter.

255/35/20 = 255 mm width / 35% aspect ratio = 89.25 mm sidewall / 20 inch rim.
All this equals a 27 inch total diameter.

(255 * .35 * 2 / 25.4) + 20 = 27

If you get the right size tire and rim, then the overall diameter of the wheel/tire combo will not (and should not) change. The tire size I mentioned above matches the same diameter that is on the front of our cars stock. The way the brakes are on our cars, they don't allow for wider tires and rims than what is listed above. I have 20 x 10.5 in rear with 285/30/20 tires.

You can have them done any color or texture you like. Most are standard unless it is something unheard of.

I was about to answer but it was explained perfectly below.

The 30 on a 285 tire is really not too thin at all. 25 looks really thin.

255/35/20 = 255 mm width / 35% aspect ratio = 89.25 mm sidewall / 20 inch rim.
All this equals a 27 inch total diameter.
