If u do a search in m3 forums you will see, they just arent a good company. Theyve had numerous issues, some which can be categorized as careless and reckless which could have had bad consequences. I had ordered 360 Forged back in the day when these same guys were running that place into the ground. Needless to say I never got my wheels and would never buy a product from them.

I believe ADV has turned around, they have some really nice wheels. You sound like a scorned old customer that didn't get his wheels and your right 100% in feeling that way. Although i don't have any personal experience with adv but their wheels do look good and are very pricey.

OP: NIce wheels, Classic and simple.

There are posts more recent than my experience, where issues arose that caused dangerous situations. Thats one and done for me - u cant recover from that imo because there are so many options for the same wheels. ADV doesnt offer much in terms of anything different, in this world I believe customer service sets you apart. If you have a product that warrants an arrogant attitude and u still get the biz, then more power to you.

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=631009

http://www.the370z.com/wheels-tires/...v1-wheels.html

Those are just a couple posts, there are many if you look. Am i a scorned old customer? Kind of, Im was never a real customer thanks to Peter Lee @ Wheel Experts because he handled my order and took no deposit from me. If you bankrupted 360 then moved on to ADV and didnt immediately change your ways, then I dont understand how you get business. If your girl cheats on you once, u taking her back? I for one am not. But as a potential customer that had a bad experience, my right is to tell people and steer them away based on my experience, whatthey choose to do with that knowledge is on them. I swore since the day I was screwed by them, I would hold this grudge forever, and im sticking to that.

Show me a wheel company that has a 100% record? I've seen as much bad things about HRE's quality as I have about ADV, and that is close to nothing. Every wheel company in the world has had issues, and ADV had to start from rock bottom because the owner was caught in the 360 storm.

Once someone gets a bad rep, some people can not let that go. No matter what happens.

Ferrari used glue on the 458 that made the entire car burst in to flames. Most people laugh at that now.

ADV has two wheels out of thousands crack, and tons of people can't wait for an opportunity to bad mouth them.. pretty sad if you ask me.

To each his own, but I for one aint letting it go. It isnt just an order unfulfilled, it was many conversations I had with them personally and was given assurances that I was fine because I went out on a limb while they were having issues. I never spoke to Jordan, but I spoke to two of his close associates who told me no doubt, my 360 Mesh 8's would be delivered in time, then they all disappeared. This is my gripe, would u go back?

I get that a wheel can fail, just like a car can fail, its what is done to make up for it. I for one was never spoken to again since 360 was defunct - Alain, who resurrected 360 actually attempted to fulfill my order, however I passed and moved on to Modulare.

I'm intrigued, I am going to look into that just because I'm curious. I've had two sets of their wheels and I'm happy. I do not what was going within the company our upper management before 2010, but I know they kicked off after that year and seem to be thriving.

Dont get me wrong, I chose 360 for a reason, I loved their designs, and ADV1s as well. Im glad you had a good experience, I just happened to have a bad one. These wheels actually reminded me of yours actually, which is why I mentioned that. But sorry for thread jacking, Im done with my bashing. Sick wheels OP, definitely head turners. If roads werent so bad here, I'd have considered three piece wheels as they seem to have that WOW factor.
