Default Cant find these wheels...help.

So I ran into this gent at the local starbucks yesterday morning, I was there with my 04 MS Z06 and he was there with his MY 02 Z06.
He had these 20" rears and 19" fronts that looked amazing.
They were polished lips, and black centers, with a shield similar to the HRE in the middle. I looked at the name, and it either said Santini or Savanti on the wheel..at least I thought thats what it said.
I came home and tried to locate them on the net..and I've found nothing!
It looked really good on the Z06!

I'm assuming I remember the wrong name for the wheel, anyone have any ideas as to what they might have been?

any help would be appreciated.

BTW, he also had a sweet sounding Bassani exhaust on the car, and Baer cross drilled rotors...

ADVthanksANCE

Default Thank you

Thank you for the response. I found them!!
They are the iforged Evolution wheels.
I really like the double 5 spoke design with the polished lip.
Giovanna also has a couple of nice wheels!!

Yikes! Someone else in town has the same car color/wheel combo as me! Unless you just saw my car parked somewhere and some guy was claiming it as his!

They look great, tho... They have a group purchase going on I think.

yeah some of the giovanni 3 piece wheels are nice. the i forged wheels look sweet but some have had customer service problems and clear coat peel. think they are doing a better job now though (one problem was they grew so fast). another option would be to check out ccw...they have great wheels and service. they are not multi-piece though. good luck.
