ICONZ OR SAVINI??? ANYONE???
Hi, I posted this in vendor feedback area, but I need more exposure as I am purchasing soon. It doesn't seem many wheel people visit that thread :(
I'm about to throw down some very serious coin on wheels after four solid months of debate & shopping. I have narrowed it down, I think, to two wheel makers: Iconz & Savini. Both have been damn good at answering all my questions (pretty patient guy's), but I have no idea about their quality or customer service after the sale. I'm not rich and these wheels are a stretch for me, so I really need the experience to be good. I cannot afford otherwise. Does anybody have wheels from either builder? Can you tell me about the quality and service? You have no idea how much I would appreciate your insight. I will return the favor if you need info about any of my mods. furthermore, I will write about my experience after I select so all of you folks on the fence can have the feedback I so desperately need right now. Afterall, buying wheels can be more expensive than a stinking Maggie or other SC!!!! Thanks crew!!!!

Iconz suspended
Okay, WTF? I just saw that Iconz account is suspended. I swear I have had the worst luck with choosing vendors on this site. Luckily I had not yet put my deposit down. Does anybody know why the suspension? I guess I am back to the drawing board. Anybody deal with Savini????

commercial posts outside of the vendor's section. 30 days.
Not anything serious, they just need to follow the posting rules. |

I'm sure the ban has nothing towards the way Iconz does business. Just fouled up on the posting rules. In my opinion, Iconz FTW! I love their wheel profiles. Trying to pick which ones I like myself.. but theres just too many killer ones!
To me Iconz are more sport/race looking and need to go on a "this car means business" type of camaro. Savani's I've never really cared for and to me, have more of a "bling bling, look at me" type of appearance. They just look cheaper to me. Contact Nine Ball on here as he is a dealer for a ton of forged wheels. He'll hook ya up.

Good info here. I agree on the appearance. I am still hoping to find somebody who has done business with them from C5. This is an insanely large amount of money for me that I can't risk losing from a dishonest vendor. I almost got burned from another vendor and was saved at the last minute my the Mods. BTW Milk - thanks for the info. Is anybody else leary of Florida wheel builders or is that just my paranoia?

That actually means a lot, Junkie. Thanks for your input. I'm sure you know why the paranoia . I'm feeling more confident already.
