Vortex Tuning ftw. I've dealt with them before and everything went smooth as butter. So much so in fact, that I kind of want a second set of wheels just to have the same customer service again
no joke!

These are very strong low pressure cast wheels with load rating of 690Kg per wheel. They are also lightweight at 23.3lb front and 26.4lb rear.

Honestly a lot of people make a big deal about forged (more expensive) VS cast (less expensive) and I want to disclose right up front that for a good 90% of us drivers both will suffice for the weekend track, daily driving, and long distance driving. I have been through over 60 sets of wheels in the last 18 years and it makes no difference for daily commutes/driving with an occasional track day. Some people will say otherwise and its just not correct most of the time. Even some said SSR was a weak wheel and funny thing is I met the president of Speed Star Racing when I lived in Hawaii when they came out to Eurosport and told him about a lot of people saying that over the years in person and on the forums and he laughed and said it was just not true and just a rumor (of course right?). I had 3 sets and never had an issue in the several years I owned them. Most ran into curbs, thus they broke/fractured. I did that with a forged Volk and high cast Advans... all 3 did the same thing.

However, one bonus you see with forged wheels is they tend to weigh less than the cast wheels. But there are a high quality cast wheel such as Advan and they are pretty darn light.

My two favorite wheels are Advan RG2s (cast) and Volk CE28 (forged). If I could own both, I would. Done and done.

Anyway its really up to you and what you are looking for.

Good luck with your search and bump for some sweet wheels!!!

It's not like cast wheels are going to break/warp the same day you buy them. It just isn't so. They will last. These wheels look great IMO.

I never got a PM or answer

I changed my mind about the wheels thou... I actually like the Forza in black. For the Mcoupe at the top, what tires? is it on springs or coil overs? are there any spacers used? (i like the way it sits and looks)
