I had the same problem with them recently.

I called 4-5 times over 2 days and someone finally picked up on the last try before I gave up. However, once I got a hold of someone, they were quick to send me a quote and quick to get me my coated rim halves.

I need to order some more wheels and I'm a little nervous to do business with them. As you said, they have sort of dropped off the face of the earth. Makes me uneasy as to the state of the business.

I've noticed that as well!!


At this point - There's no way I'd buy anything from them. That's a death spiral.

Forgeline DP3R --- then you have to call them and ask what they have in a BOLT on version....

If you can't get a set of RAD 10s, you could always go with a set of Forgelines. I just got a set of GZ3Rs with step lips and the quality is top notch! I debated about getting a set of RAD 10s but ultimately called Mark at Forgeline because I knew they would be able to build and deliver quickly in 3 weeks or less.

That's pretty quick build and turn around time, nice.

Average build time for Forgeline is 4 weeks. One of the fastest in the biz.

Detroit Speed Inc is the dealer for Formula 43 wheels. Hopefully you get an answer to your question by them

Personally, I own neither brand, but if I may add my $.02, I'd opt for the Forgelines. Not a knock or a slander against Formula 43, but those Forgelines are just some sick wheels. Honestly, I may opt for a 2nd set of wheels for my car and will go with their center bolt versions.
