MHT vs Strasse
 

I am looking for Help. I got price quotes on both the MHT Forged Rims and Strasse, both cost about 5,000 dollars. I am needing help does anybody have any thoughts on those rims is there any rims better for that price.

Thanks...

Pumdaman, I can get you 3 piece forged Concave stuff for cheaper then that. No one can compete, Forged Specialties my friend, thats all I have to say. Let me know when your ready, b/c with a budjet like that, you should be doing the right stuff.

Forged Specialities for a couple thousand less. :tup:

Yeah, my man knows very well, if you want just regular 3 piece wheels, non concave, you will save several thousand and can get some better tires.

So Chris what i am looking for is 20x9 in the front and 20x11 in the back. I want a machined black rim with a red pinstripe. Do you have any suggestions.

Or what else would u reccomend.

Thanks

Thomas, Hopefully I can understand this, you want like a machined face w/ black windows, and then the lip probably to be black with a red pinstripe? Sort of like this wheel, but with a lip and red pinstripe?

I love the look of the rim, but i want it all black... The only other color should be the red pinstripe...

Those are the TSW Nurburgrings that I have on my Z. They also come in solid gunmetal, not machined like the one in the picture. They are EXTREMELY reasonable as well. Chris will treat you right.

Puma I sent you pricing for both CF wheels and for black with pinstripe. With Strasse Forged you will be getting the best quality product If you are not satisfied with the quality of Strasse Forged wheels I will personally offer you a 100% money back Guarantee!!! We have the best quality wheels hands down and I will stand by that claim all day long!!!

would you mind explaining what makes a wheel such high quality as you describe it? unless i'm mistaken, we are all talking about 3 piece Forged wheels made of 6061 aircraft grade aluminum all offering whatever colors, whatever sizes, with many designs. you mentioned quality 3 times in one post. A money back guarantee is a really nice way to show you stand behind a product, but i'm really curious about what makes strasse such high quality. I'm sure they are high quality, they look like they are, and judging by the clientelle, they are. But considering the cars these are on, (lambo's etc) you're talking about type a clientelle that really doesn't mind shelling out another 2-3k on wheels if you convince them its something better. These are people that equate price with quality, so if wheel x costs more than wheel y, then wheel x is better in their eyes. simple as that. but this isn't a lamborghini forum. its not even a GTR forum. i'm not trying to :stirthepot: but if theres something we are all missing out on in terms of quality, i'd be really curious to know what it is.

This is about to turn into an interesting thread. :stirthepot:

Tommy: Chicken wings! Let's think about this for a sec, Ted, why would somebody put a guarantee on a box? Hmmm, very interesting.

Ted Nelson: Go on, I'm listening.

Tommy: Here's the way I see it, Ted. Guy puts a fancy guarantee on a box 'cause he wants you to fell all warm and toasty inside.

Ted Nelson: Yeah, makes a man feel good.

Tommy: 'Course it does. Why shouldn't it? Ya figure you put that little box under your pillow at night, the Guarantee Fairy might come by and leave a quarter, am I right, Ted?

Ted Nelson: What's your point?

Tommy: The point is, how do you know the fairy isn't a crazy glue sniffer? "Buildin' model airplanes!" says the little fairy, well, we're not buying it. He sneaks into your house once, that's all it takes. The next thing you know, there's money missing off your dresser and your daughter's knocked up, I've seen it a hundred times.

Ted Nelson: But why do they put a guarantee on the box?

Tommy: Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of ****. That's all it is, isn't it? Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I've got spare time. But for now, for your customer's sake, for your daughter's sake, ya might wanna think about buying a quality product from me.

Ted Nelson: Okay, I'll buy from you.
