Hi Guys/Gals, we are a wheel company on the east coast and were wondering what you guys thought of our new prototype design? It's a concave full faced 5 spoke wheel. Thank you in advanced for checking this out and leaving comments!

you'll probably want to contact the admins before trying to promote your product. honestly not a fan but i'm sure somebody will like it. reminds me of a forgiato design.

so many new wheel companies these days. Everyone is designing their own wheels but they all look alike.

Honestly, it's a nice take on a classic design.....but since this design is everywhere, I'd mix it up with some notches. Like this:

Which wheels are you referring to that look like this 5 spoke shape? I'd love to see them, could help me alter the design.

What's funny is i had slits similar to that on there and took them off to clean it up. Let me go back to it and look at it again.

Yeah, you should put them back. Honestly, people buy wheels to stand out, not to have the same thing as the other guys. The slits would set it apart imo.

I agree.... with slits gives rims more character rather then plain jane.

+1 on the slits
While I love the overall design of the 5 spoke full face wheel, like Romeo said its been done way too many times by way too many other companies. While I imagine it would be hard to come up with a new twist on an old design, I think its necessary to make people want to buy your wheel as opposed to the other companies who already have history and a name.
But it is to see another east coast wheel company. Where u located?
Maybe you should post more info about your company via a website or something. (Like your designs, sizing/offset options, Overall audience, ect..)

^What Smitty said. Also, keep in mind that the face is concave inwards, which can pose a problem with Big Brake Kits. I am sure you probably already know that, but ensuring the design can clear BBK is a very important thing for the majority of ppl that buys wheels.

I love the design with the slits, the other similiar wheels (WORK DH, etc) is one of my favorite styles. I do like the ida of adding a big concave face to them, that would be highly appealing to myself.

Modern approach to the OG wheels. I like it, concave adds exclusiveness to them.

Actually it concaves out to give you more room for brakes. I tried to change the cuts up a little so it wasn't like all the rest, but wanted to keep the classic full face styling. There are ball cuts around the edges for another subtle touch.
Lusso Forged is based out of Rhode Island. We build wheels to fit any application and offset, sizes range from 19" - 24". We can do any finish and color imaginable. To be honest our clientele is anybody. I design wheels for the passion of it and to compliment the car. We have 9 styles at the moment, this one being our newest. You can check out some or our other work at lussoforged.com.
Guys thanks for the feedback and again I'm not trying to sell anything, I just like to do a ton of different kinds of research before fully developing a wheel.
