liner33 Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Well it is forged as in a copy but the wheel is cast but has forged written on it , forged wheels are stamped out of solid metal , cast wheels are cast into a mould as a liquid metal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there tell-tale signs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liner33 Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Dodgy lettering is a good way to identify chinese cast ones :) You cant tell for sure you need to look up close , often forged wheels have the lettering recessed instead of proud as its easier to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
