Not directly from Alibaba and just sharing my experience. I got custom performance pack wheels made by VFC Performance last year, who I believe sources their materials and manufacturing process in China (if anyone knows more about them, please correct me if I am wrong). The process was smooth, asked what I was looking for, then I was given renders within 5-7 days after a 50% deposit. Did a few revisions and then the renders were finalized and the wheels were made to order. In total, it was around a two month process. I've had them for a while now and they have a pretty good reputation on Instagram from what I see. I know another mustang owner that had another custom set for his S650 made by VFC Performance too. I've had these for a while now and am also in the process of getting another custom set from them for my Supra.

Thank you! Not going to lie it was pretty expensive on the Mustang at $2499 for the pair, I'm assuming because it was one-off & custom-made. It was the first design they've made like that. I think that because my pair for the Supra is half of the cost. The other custom pair I'm getting are their beadlock wheels for the Supra, but I wanted it as a monoblock and not a beadlock. It's a very popular / more common design that they've already been making. I also see the same designs for the wheel on Alibaba too, so I am inclined to believe that reason more.

No problem with Alibaba wheels here, you just have to do your due diligence and find a reputable factory. They have a reference system and feedback. Just stick to those who have been in business for years and have high feedback. I made the mistake of buying from a "dealer" who was just another drop shipper placing the order on Alibaba and using centercaps made with the "company" he "started". Horse shyt. My wheel have all been high quality and I have had zero issues FWIW.
