Blame it on the cost of materials and inflation, but Forgelines just cost more these days...
Oh I hear ya there. I think it's not a coincidence that no one has done the 20% off Black Friday deal last year or 2 that was popular every year and everyone seemed to pull the wheel trigger at that time.

I just didn't/don't think throwing a Driverz Inc invoice around as a "match this price" deal makes much sense.

Bottom line.... Really good wheels ain't cheap!
