I'm looking for wheels for my '03 350z. I've spent many hours on the Internets and I've got my size and spacing requirements figured out, and I'm set on some Continental extreme sport contacts. I don't want garbage cheap wheels, but I also have no need or interest in spending money on forged Volk wheels.
I found a brand with the look I want in a flow-formed wheel (Ambit FF1) but I've never heard of them.
This is my daily driver year round and I'm never going to take these wheels to Sebring. But I drive in Pennsylvania, and I know what potholes do to cheap rims.
If anybody has any experience with these wheels or this brand, good or bad, I'd like to know before I pull the trigger.
Thanks
One of the many wheels that come out of the same few SE Asian factories. Many brands all use the same factory and that's while you'll see many low-mid tier brands with wheels you could swear are the same.
If you are considering a true forged wheel, but don't want to deal with the high cost, there is a new company called Titan-7 that you may want to check out:
Titan-7
The owner is a longtime industry wheel expert, and a stand-up guy. I'm positive the wheels will be high quality.
I've never heard of Ambit, FWIW.

^ Beautiful wheels. but $1800 / set is still a bit rich for my meager budget. I'll stick with the cheaper flow formed stuff

Those TS5 wheels are beautiful, and look just like what I want, but the price difference almost covers the tires. For my intended purposes, I think flow-formed will be sturdy enough.
