Cheap Forged Wheels?
Who makes the cheapest forged wheels? I don't need anything fancy or even a name brand. Just something strong and lightweight.
I found these.. and i think they're cheaper.. but dunno where i can buy them at.

just because they are forged, doesnt mean they are strong.
case in point, Motegi Traklites, they are forged, hella lite, however they are made in china and have sh!tty quality and bend easy.
if you want, check out the Enkei PRF1, they are very strong, and light.

That's RPF1, in case you google it.
But yea, you'd be hard pressed to find a cheap forged wheel. The Traklites are probably your best bet. Other than that, you'd probably do well to find a moderately priced but light weight cast wheel.

i read cast can be just as light as forged, just not as strong. when i say strong, i mean it will not crack/brake when it hits a curb at 20+ mph. but at that point you'll brake suspension, steering, and body components before you bust the wheel.
hit a cast wheel hard enough and it will crack/chip.
hit a forged wheel hard enough and it will bend.
the cost to replace or repair a cast wheel is probably cheaper than repairing/replacing a forged wheel.

You can choose 2 of these:
* Cheap
* Light
* Quality
you cant have all 3

well you are close...i don't really think you can get cheap and quality. 9 times out of 10 you get what you pay for
