Default Precision Forged Wheels?

Has anyone had any experience with this company? Curious about the quality. Can’t find much information about them.

No experience with them (or even heard of them before), but standing by to hear any comments about their wheels.

They will do custom forged wheels at what seems like too-good-to-be-true prices. $2K for a set of monoblock, $2700 for a two-piece.

Find out where they are made and how much they actually weigh. Are they fully-forged or is "forged" just in the name, as with some others? Btw, there are two Taiwan manufacturers that are fine. Chinese... anyone's guess, and I'd expect that's where these come from. All the best.

Manufactured in California, fully forged. Wish I could find some reviews or people who have done business with them. The photos look great.

The lack of information on their website and the "to good to be true" prices are enough to make me leery.

I just received a set of BC Forged KL17 wheels, made in Taiwan, for my 2020 Shelby GT500. Being installed today. Their vendor, Hypermotive Performance in North Carolina, was great to deal with, and offered the best price. The wheels are superb. The set delivered was $4k for reference, and build time to delivery was approx. 5 weeks.

I had a fews sets from BC Forged. Great wheels. Precision Forged will do a custom design to my specs. Monoblock for about $2200.00. There is no info on what their warranty is, production standards, etc.

check out the instagram page for precision_forged. they have built hundreds of fully forged wheels for just about any car. if you want corvette specific builds aerolarri is another fully forged company that runs just under 3k$ for a full set of 1 piece wheels. the days of 10k for a forged set are over!

No I did not.
I got 4 or 5 quotes and Hypermotive Performance was best price and provided great responses and service.

The wheels I got are BC Forged KL17 model.

OK, following questions:
1. Where do you get the T-6061 blocks from?
2. Where do you cut the blocks?
3. Given that "forged" wheels run from approx. $4K to $10+K, how can you sell fully forged wheels so cheap, especially in sizes for Corvette C7 GS, Z06, etc.?
4. What is your structural and paint warranty?
5. What is your normal build and shipping times?
6. Do you require all funds up front?
7. Do OEM TPMS sensors and Corvette center caps fit?
8. What certification(s) have you achieved?
9. Are your wheels clearly marked on the back side with sizes, certifications, off sets, etc.?

Thanks

Ive been trying to get ahold of this company and it seems communication is lacking. There is no phone number anywhere to be found, and it seems the answers to the several questions in this thread have since been deleted. I remember reading through the answers and another user responded "good answers" however, the answers are all gone. Did the company go under? Ive sent several emails to the company as well as facebook messages. I would get a response instantly on facebook but then the second I would start giving specs and designs of what I needed it was like I was ghosted and could not get another response. It shouldnt be this hard to give money away to buy a product lol. Does anyone else have any experience with this company?

So what happened to your post you have 3 posts and only 2 show up in your profile. So you obviously deleted the post which answered some or all the above questions. I'm sorry this is sounding like scam city to me. This is how the pop up sites work offering super cheap whatever and you either get **** knockoffs or nothing at all. They have no contact info at all but email or chat. Answer the above questions again or please move on.

I bought a set of wheels from Giovanni my buddy bought a set from him and I also had a custom set of center caps from him. what else do you need? this thread got a bit ugly a while back with someone posting some inaccurate posts and the mods cleaned it up. that could be the missing posts your looking for.
ive been on this forum for a number of yrs have a few posts and a few likes. ask me what you will and ill try to answer what I know of the company. I can tell you that I paid 2600$ shipped and taxes for a full set of forged wheels custom made to my specs. definitely not a scam

Thanks not trying to start an issue but why would mod delete his post with info about his wheels. So you can understand how this seemed sketchy. Deleting a post that was out of line I get. I have been on their site as well and it is very limited. Honestly I have no questions other than are they legit and legit with pricing, and how is the quality. Warranty info would be good as well.

understand completely. communication could always be better . for me I used instagram and always had good communication. seems he spends more time there than any other place. I did my entire transaction there. they are legit pricing is legit in my estimation of course ad more custom steps price goes up. they do 1 piece 2 piece beadlock any flavor of color paint powdercoat chrome the list goes on . mine were 1 piece with a few custom touches custom offsets and high polish with a clear coat. I honestly cant tell you about any warrenty since they are full custom wheels you get what you ask for. if offsets aren't right it would be on the buyer he builds what you want. mine are ccb z07 car and offsets and clearance were spot on

I messaged them on Instagram and got an immediate response. He was on the road delivering wheels to a customer but a couple hours later remembered to send me pictures of zo6’s with his wheels. I’m really looking forward to deciding on a wheel and ordering through him.

an earlier post questioned the price of custom forged wheels being “low”…….
this is what wheel should cost. The $6k, $8k, $10k wheels from other companies are a ripoff. You are paying for a name. Most of them come out of the same plant in Taiwan. There is enormous profit for these guys. Precision forged has a different business model and after speaking with them that’s the only place I’ll order from. After I get the zo6 done I’m going to have them make a set for my mustang.
