**NEW iFORGED Carbon Fiber Finish Wheels**
I'm subscriber to iFORGED's monthly newsletter. This month they feature their carbon fiber finish available on the Formula, VIP and Precision Series wheels. I thought it was pretty cool!!
Here's the link if anyone's interested: http://www.iforged.com/carbonfiber/ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() MIX

I dunno about that man, Polished gets dirty easy. But carbon fiber I think is easier to get watermarks/oxidation.

Considering these look to be cleared, it'd be pretty easy to upkeep. Clay bar, and wax em up every once in a while like you do your car and it should be fine.

How the fuck is it rice? You get polished wheels cause they look nice, you get brushed wheels cause they look nice, you get black faced wheels cause they look nice, you get gold faced wheels cause they look nice. Now you get CF faced wheels cause they look nice and it's rice. Umm ok.

Everything is considered rice these days, even a stock Supra is rice to some assholes. But I digress, those wheels look pretty cool.

We helped out Vince @ IForged in getting these wheel to debut. The sets came out really clean and pictures don't do it's justice guys! You should see them in person.

look at the following raw carbon fiber chassis, it's fuckin gorgeous. do you think if you wrapped your entire car in carbon fiber film it would look as nice as this or do you think it'll look stupid and pretentious? same thing with these wheels. anyhoo, go back to slapping on your gtr taillights or your powered by mugen stickers and let us grown ass men decide with true taste decide what's rice or not. and yes those 360 forged wheels are fugly.
