Forged Brig's? ya or na?

I couldn't find much, if any info at all on these Brig Wheels....
I got quoted $600 shipped FORGED 15x6.5

Im hoping these ones are the same price
Again FORGED

Im not a rim guy, I dont know what are good wheels what are bad wheels.... I just need some for my car. Its fast now but the steelies are getting boring. I dont have to have forge, but I figured that was a good quote.

Im getting closer and closer to just jumping on the Rota bandwagon.

I'd rather have 16'' too but **** I dunno....

What do you guys think?

(BTW: Im not looking to spend a lot (no more then $600ish shipped for the WHEELS only; and thats pushing it. Car is turboed as well so I really want light wheels? Wouldnt heavier ones help with traction?)

Really nice rims. Sorry I cant help answer your question about the heavy rims-more traction question. Anyone?

Where did you get that quote from? So are you goin with the 15's? I read that they weigh only 10 lbs. each. I have been looking at the Mag 8. Both those wheels look very nice.

Re: Forged Brig's? ya or na? (dFreezy)

heavier wheels wont help with traction directly. They will only be more mass to spin therefor robbing power, making them less likely to spin but also slower to accelerate and brake. Lighter wheels are always better for performance.

They've got a similar set, also at about 10 lbs. And, they carry then in 16" (14lbs).

phlush, do you know of any dealers for these? 'cause they don't have any prices listed.

I love how that first one looks...almost like CE28's. What are the weights for the 15's? Do you know if they come in 5 lug?

If I were you, I'd just get the lightest of the two. They both look good, but IMO, I'd get option #1.

Re: (P Nut)

I am not sure who their dealers are. I would just email them and see what's up. I would expect Pacer Sport wheels to not be as expensive as the Volk CE28s though. Man, their website looks really clean

It looks like the pacersport ones and the brigs are forged at the same place just different decals stuck to them.
