I have been in the market for aftermarket wheels for nearly a year. I have been looking at Forgeline, BBS, HRE, Ankry....... etc, but couldn't find anything that I liked more than my Mission E's. I kept coming back to a couple sets of Forgeline wheels and decided to reach out to them due to the fact that I could not find many pictures of their wheels on Taycans. I had no idea that Forgeline was 30 minutes away from me....I spoke to Steve Schardt and was invited into the facility to look at finishes. Steve gave me a tour of the facility and I must admit, I was very impressed with them. Their attention to detail from start to finish is top notch. Steve, and his brother Dave are super nice guys that clearly love what they do. If you are in the market for 3 piece, Monoblock, or flow form forged wheels, take a look at Forgeline and give them a call. You will not be disappointed. Now come on Ohio Spring so I can show off my new AL301's!

Curious which of their wheels you like over the Mission E.

*Edit- Aha, there it is on the last line

Your car looks great. Those FU3C’s are at the top of my list as I’m trying to decide on new wheels for my car. What are your thoughts on your staggered figment with the 40 series tires up front? And any rubbing with the 325’s out back. What offset are the wheels?
No issues after >20,000 miles. @Adrian@GlasWerksDMV ensured the wheels would not rub in any ride height setting with four wheel steering at full lock. Note that the tire diameters are approximately the same for the front 20" and rear 21" wheels, which simplifies things. Here's a longer post about the wheel/tire setup:
