I am sticking on nardox side of the line on this one, a camaro with mesh and a drop is da sex. I feel like the lost boys between rufio and peter pan, I know someone older will understand that?? anyone anyone?

There's a difference between Konig and a high quality cast wheel, which I believe do exist. For example, the Forgestar F14s, the Vossen monoblock series, the TSW Nurburgring. And then there are always the two-piece forged Pro Wheels (prowheels.net). Gorgeous, forged wheels for prices similar to the higher-end cast wheels. Nardox, check out the Pro Wheels Formulas, somewhat similar to the M20s or whatever by Forged Specialties at around $2000/set. That's what I'm working toward most likely

People are very quick to dismiss a cast wheel, but I think that they are not all built equally. Would I throw an $800 set of wheels on my car? No. But I would be more than happy and confident to put on any of the wheels above.

I mean I am not an expert, but from the pictures it almost looks like a cast wheel to me, so dont think you can compare a forged wheel with a cast. I def understand though, I had some rotas on my old subaru( I know I know rotas), but for the money they werent bad to me. I ran them and one cracked on the spoke, I called the manufacturer and they shipped me out a new one without even sending the other one back.

I guess at the end of the guy its how someone takes care of their customer to. I never write anyone off, unless they treat me like garbage. Honestly, do your research and just contact the company I guess.

Well said, Forgestars are REALLY nice, but I hate the no lip thing. They are a good example though, that cast stuff isnt always bad.

Capt. Ramsey: Speaking of horses did you ever see those Lipizzaner stallions.
Hunter: What?
Capt. Ramsey: From Portugal. The Lipizzaner stallions. The most highly trained horses in the world. They're all white?
Hunter: Yes, sir.
Capt. Ramsey: "Yes, sir" you're aware they're all white or "Yes, sir" you've seen them?
Hunter: Yes, sir I've seen them. Yes, sir I was aware that they're are all white. They are not from Portugal; they're from Spain and at birth, they're not white; they're black. Sir.
Capt. Ramsey: I didn't know that. But they are from Portugal.
