Default Review: Gerry @ C4WL and Forgeline GA1Rs

Afternoon Everyone!

Wanted to take the time to give a quick shout to Gerry at Custom Wheels for Less as well as Forgeline Wheels for some great customer service. If you're in the market for some forged aftermarket wheels look no further. I spent 2 months going back and forth with him before finally deciding to pull the trigger on some closed lug, extra deep cap gloss black GA1Rs and couldn't be happier with how they turned out. I followed his recommendation for offsets as well (+35mm, +50mm), not quite flush but much more aggressive than stock with no rubbing whatsoever despite being dropped all the way on stock bolts. There was a post from 2016 reviewing Gerry for this same set of wheels in gloss gun-metal on a blue Z06 but figured it was fair to give Gerry a well deserved plug again 3 years later.

It took about 5 weeks from the time I placed the order to the time I received the wheels (which were 1-day shipped to me as soon as they were done). The gloss black is an incredible finish and I have gotten complements on the wheels from everyone who has seen them on the car so far. If you have any questions I'm happy to answer them but if not, enjoy the photos! I live in Michigan so the weather has been pretty unforgiving but hopefully I'll have more to post on instagram this summer, @rally_vette.

Much appreciated and thanks for the pictures, looks incredible. Welcome to the forum and enjoy the vette, we are always glad to assist especially with all those cracked wheels going around. Thanks for choosing Forgeline and CW4L made in the USA using only the best APP forgings. Cut no corners why we love em!

Looks great! Placed my order with Gerry for VX1s and can't wait to get them. He provides awesome customer service and will spend as much time as you need in order to get the best setup for your needs. Congrats.

Looks great. I'm torn between those and VX1s. Also can't decide between satin and gloss...

I don't make it easy, I make it worth your wild, lol. Appreciate it my friend.

Always a tough decision, both look incredible and as you can see we all have a little different tastes in colors and wheels. Why we offer different styles. Can't go wrong with whatever you choose though.

Please by any means if you need help call/text me at 440-915-6166 and I'll take care of you. These are some of the best Forged wheels on the market made using the best APP Forgings right here in the USA. In the world of wheels there are always choices and I love my Forgelines all I can tell you and they are definitely an incredible wheel and company

Yes your a member of the multi set club, lol. Carl has bought 8 sets and Chris is close behind him with his 6th set purchased today from us. Its easy to sell a product such as Forgeline but its even better getting to share our passion with all of you and you guys enjoying it.

All these posts mean a helluva lot to us. And I thank each and every one of you.
