Sorry, got confused by the continuous model listing. That's why I'm not a wheel slut.

That's why mlai gets as many rims as possible to find the perfect match.

Off topic from me hehe.

Just scratched my front left rim again tonight. Don't even when and where I did it. These rims are just insane to drive with especially we need to parallel park all the time in HK. mlai you better watch out with your upcoming two sets of expansive rims bro.

Anyway a few hundred bucks to touch up again.

mlai · 07-20-2011, 11:06 AM

Ouch! Poor F14s. I guess we all have our fair share but they are easily repaired.

Yeah, old habbit die hard

You can read Forged 1 right on the wheel!

That's the only thing that I don't like on those. They should just brush the Forged1 logo there so that it shows up more instead of looking like being painted over......

I thought the logos are etched on and not painted on the center piece and the barrel? Do you mean the painted black portion with the logo? If so, I rather have it painted over instead of showing up etched. I thought you like low key and subtle bro.

Can't wait to see these mounted!

The reason the engraving wasn't done a different color is that most guys don't like it to begin with. Forged 1 makes it as inconspicuous as possible by default unless otherwise noted.

Wondering how difficult it is to get rid of the black paint with a dremel so that Forged1 shows up.....

LOL trust me its not as easy as it sounds.

Aside from that the slightest mistake would mean having to do the entire wheel again as I don't think you would want to touch up something on a premium set of wheels

That's we routinely do, due to the stupid narrow streets and entrances with high curbs and low profile tires here in Hong Kong.

Well, I have to say Forged 1 is super deal. Too bad they don't have it when I got my car. And I am not a wheel slut, can't change them like underwear.
