Purchased these wheels and the factory finish was horrible.... decided to go back to my Black/Black look.

They are Iforged.... my HRE's have such a nice finish and are about 5 lbs lighter each wheel.... I just like the concave look better.

So are forgestars the budget wheels for the viper? and all the rest are way up there?

Most of the barrels are made by Rennen, I think that's the spelling, and then the hubs are designed by each wheel house/designer and they pick the material. That's why some are cheap and some are expensive and also some like to put bigger mark ups for exclusivity. Basically ADV and HRE are up there and the budget wheels are swapping stock wheels from newer gen's, my $.02.

Thanks! Still have them in the garage, no one wants to pay good money for good wheels anymore.... have a local guy interested but not sure I want to let them go just yet for cheap.

Here's when I first got them in a graphite/chrome combo:
