Best place to find iForged/Jline/HRE wheels?

Wondering where the best place is to find those kind of wheels for the best price. Any help would be great, thanks!

You can get HRE and Iforged directly from them. Rishie at AutoRND can get Jline. You do know that HRE and Iforged can be about $1000 per rim. Jline are more around the Volks pricing of about $400-600 per rim.

Yeh, I know about HRE/Iforged, if you want something good, you need to spend the money.

Honestly, I don't believe they are "that" good. You can chrome just about any rim if that's the look you like. If the Iforged/HRE look is what you are after, the Jline would be a better fit unless you just have money to throw away. What's going to happen when you spend 5k on HRE wheels, then park your car somewhere and have someone steal your rims?

Those rims are great for show cars, but not really all that practical for people who actually 'drive' their cars.

Always bringing up good points Mahjik. I understand that, I too was sort of "against" spending 5k+ for just wheels and I go back and forth, but I agree, I somewhat don't feel that need to spend 5k on wheels for just a daily driver. I liked ADR Cypher's but they are discontinued and I can't find them and we all know that people say ADR's are cheap, but I don't know, everyone has their own opinion.

Look into Fikses. For the money you are looking at spending, they are in the ballpark. About 3500 for a set, you can get them directly from Fikse.

I think your eyes are bigger than your checkbook. The stock wheels on the fd are actually...awesome. For the 5k youre looking at spending on those crazy rims you could make some insane investments into your 7. A set of stage 3 BNR's and a crazy fuel system and computer.
