Really killed my trip cuz I had my eye on those f14 super deep concaves. And changed my mind after that plus works and works of art there amazing up close.
Totally disagree on work of art up close (Talking about S1s). When I can see the rotary forging, I see ghetto, when the chrome on my buddy's 1968 Mustang has less pitting than 1 year old works... Meh... Not understanding that aspect...

Forgestars are rotary "forged" and I have seen many sets, can't say they don't "look" strong. They look like wheels to me, and you can't really see the rotary lines in them either, so they get a half a seal of approval by me.


And again, Works are $3000-5000, DEFINITELY not as strong as stock wheels, and they weigh more than almost any other wheel... THAT's what I'm not understanding.
And at least the TE37s are some of the lightest wheels you can buy (I still dislike the JDM hype about them though)
