Do you understand the difference between a 6061-T6 FORGING and a sand casting (e.g. A356)?
The forging is 1.5X as strong (35,000 PSI YIELD vs. 24,000 PSI YIELD for the casting).
In other words, the forged wheel could weigh roughly TWO-THIRDS that of its cast counterpart and still be just as strong.
Thus, a 14 pound FORGED 15" wheel is actually quite strong.

Yes I understand.
so my 9.9lb Forged wheels are going to break? any minute now?
Are my wheels considered racing wheels and have an inferior build to your centerlines?
