Default BC Forged wheels

Hi all,
am wondering if anyone has gone with this manufacturers wheels, they have some not bad designs and are built to your offset and bore, also are pretty much customizable in many ways but as with all things of this nature there is a certain price attached to have a set of these.

They look solid, I have not found any bad reviews yet and the LE10 looks like a pretty nice design, although there are a few others that look good too.

To me, you aren't going to get any better than this:

Pologuy,
don't get me wrong I think the stock factory wheels are not bad at all, my XJ is fitted with diamond cut 20" Orona, but my jag has been bought as a used car, and is 2011 MY, the previous owner has taken every care in service and maintenance to his credit has been treated as his baby. Thing is being a home to work and back vehicle has left the Orona wheels badly curb rashed due to inner city car parking spaces, my standing quotes for refurb of all 5 wheels stands at $1500, and that's without repainting the inside edges of the spoke pattern and wheel, taking this path leaves me with the tell-tale discolouration signs of repair around the outer rim too.

I am not an old man just yet so a little customisation is acceptable without overdoing it as long as it keeps within the limits and compliments the style/sport the XJ 351 exudes from it beautiful lines. So yes I could go for another set of Factory wheels at a substantial cost, or I can individualise my car as I please.

WOW!
I got all 4 of mine stripped, repaired and powder coated with my choice of color for $400.
I see your point about just getting different wheels.

Those are nice looking wheels. I was looking at a set of AXE-EX20 wheels that are more reasonably priced (approx. $1620 for a 20" staggered set of 4 from CarID). They're not forged though, so that might be the difference in price.

What company did you get your wheels refinished?

We're both in metro Atlanta. RTP Customs in Marietta completely refurbished the 20" Selena wheels on my XKR and the 20" Kasuga wheels on my XJ. Both had slight curb rash and no other damage. I wanted to keep the OEM appearance and had the Selenas done in a shadow chrome-look using a black base coat and the Kasugas in hypersilver. I had the inner barrel's painted black to hide the dirt and make the face stand out. I am pleased with their work and turnaround time at a reasonable cost of $160 per wheel. This was done over a year ago, so their prices may have gone up. I also brought the wheels in, off the car. They have a large facility where you can leave your car indoors overnight. When I was there, they were working on several high-dollar exotics.

Selena. Note real chrome overlays on short center spokes.


Kasuga
