Just wanted to make sure you go in with your eyes wide open.
Also make sure you understand that the wheels are not any stronger or if they are only a little stronger than a cast wheel. They give up strength for weight savings.

Personally I'd rather have the strength and that's what I thought I was getting.
Not the case, which is why I have had three bent/cracked wheels from Forgestar.
Not doing anything abusive, just driving Ca. roads.
