Can attest that he exists. Since wheels are made to order, it's hard to predict and publish the weight of the wheels.

Take this information as you'd like. The wheels are manufactured in China and they offer near endless customization with design, color, and finishes. It's what made it appealing for me. Communication is done through the social platforms or email and lead time was approximately 2 months from order confirmation to delivery. My wheels are monoblock and came in at 21.5 lbs for a 19x9.5 +35

I know this brand because of my past BMW ownership.

Thankyou sir for the response. 21 pounds is pretty good for 19" wheels ......... ;-)

These wheels look great. Based on that, I went to the VT Forged website to look around and saw that they do not have:

1. No approximate weight values
2. No center cap selections
3. No color selections
4. No description of the forging process
5. No mention of wait time
6. No telephone number so you can talk to a real person when you spend your 5 large.
7 No mention of location where the manufacturing process is done
8.No accessories

Is this business even real? Is it some dude with a laptop named Vipertoad taking my hard earned money? Is this some sort of shell front end? LOL ........... inquiring minds want to know ................
Everything, because aren’t they "JDM"? This is beyond pathetic. Why post something like this, like the OP said? If you have any questions or doubts concerning this, contact the company and they will answer your questions. But people don’t cry like this when they need to wait 3 years for the JDM wheels that probably also come from China or something similar. But because they have a decal with Japanese letters, for some reason that makes it authentic, smh.

I contacted the owner; I had an email within hours. I had a back and forth with him. I even got my rendering with a custom center cap. The wheels are being made, and I don’t have any rush about it. Thanks to the OP, I found something different and could get it in a different offset, even better than the +45 that everyone puts on.

Regarding accessories, like the so-called JDM or others, if they sent you something else, you even need to get the center cap and pay an arm and a leg extra for it. There isn’t even a phone number, like you can call Rays, BBS, Mugen, or Spoon and talk with them directly and ask them to do the wheel specific to what you want.

The one answering all of your questions.
I definitely respect your opinion, but I don't do business like you it seems. Especially for 5 grand. There is nothing wrong with listing a color chart for an idea of colors. It seems to be a decent web site, why can't they show some examples of center caps to pick from? I would of liked to have seen some "approximate" weights based on rim size for example. Not to difficult for a site with lots of pics I think. I am old school and I don't do Instagram and I should not have to do so to spend my money.
I'm glad that you are happy with your purchase. I just do business a different way. Again, I respect your opinion but I also get to express mine any way I want on a public forum.

Have you ever looked at buying any custom wheels or the standard cookie cutter stuff? Honest question.

Who said anything about Instagram?

The color chart is literally anything you want.

Not here are your 5 choices. I definitely respect your opinion but your questions and approach is super weird.

I have had a few cars in my lifetime with quite a few different wheels. Started out with Cragers in the 60's. Followed by American Racing wheels, Keystone, Chrome reverse with baby moons, Vossen on my Corvette, Signature on my GT-350R, BBS on my RS3 and currently running Apex on my FL5. Thanks for asking.
The VT Forged web page suggested contacting Lizardtoad on Instagram. A 1-800 number would have suggested a normal business.

👍 I get why you want minimal options and hand held through it with no social media communication after you said Cragers in the 60s.

Amazing you didnt mention the other ways you can contact them.

I did not mention them because I should not have to use them to make a purchase. Anyway, it's been fun chatting and again your opinion is yours and mine is mine. See ya on the forum.

BTW ....... that will definitely be without VT Forged wheels on my FL5 ......... LOL

They use the same wheel manufacturers you see on Alibaba but charge you 3x the price.

Daaang, nagalah... this looks super cherry!
Congratulations.

So... regarding that Lucky Question #7...

7. Take a wild guess where they are forged and built. The same place as every forged wheel outside of BBS wheels in Germany and a select handful of US wheels that cost 2k+ per wheel.
I'm taking that "wild guess", based on where the Honda Modulo FL5 Forged 10 spoke wheel is made:

Taiwan?

Somewhere in Tawain or China. Its funny that people dont realize this in 2026. Signature wheels that Doskiller owns are made in Tawain also.

Also appreciate it. I love the look. Its just something different.

So... you don't actually know? Taiwan OR China? Or you don't care?

To some of us, there is a big difference. Just sayin.

Thanks for your detailed thread and your quick, albeit, baffling, response.
