I assume the best set is 20 front and 21 in back as on M3/4

And I thought oem wheel designs were too busy and difficult to clean. I stand corrected.

I hope this is s fictional rendering because the front, side and rear part details do not help the g87 looks. Overall, it doesn’t look functional or well balanced.

I’d pass on both.

Until they release specs, weights, offsets, etc.... it's just some pictures on the internet. That said, they have some interesting designs on their website.

I’ve never heard of them before this OP. So many forged wheel manufacturers (resellers of one or two Chinese manufacturers) these days. I looked at their designs and I couldn’t find a single design I really liked. Even their simpler designs still looked off to me. I think it’s how they design their spokes. The look spindly or just too busy. I laugh every time I read 6061-T6 is “Aerospace Grade”. We use 6061-T6 in secondary and tertiary structure, and electronic box chassis designs, etc., not primary load path and heavily loaded structure. Everyone does it so this isn’t directed at just them. However, there are high quality and bad 6061-T6 forgings so not all forged wheels are of the same quality.

I'm with you on that. It's "buyer beware" for sure. Especially if they haven't even fitted real wheels to real cars. I guess there are buyers at all levels though, just look at that one thread in the wheel subforum... I learned a long time ago that you just don't skimp on structural parts like wheels and engine mods.
