Tell me which aftermarket alu rim is made of forged alu??? I have never came across them. Even all Porsche rims are cast alloy, except for the Fuchses of course and some RS version rims. Not even cup I or II's are forged IIRC.

An idea that I have seen only once or twice is to use the 6" spare tire rims of the Porsche models. All later ones are alloy and should be very cheap. Just collect 4 of them, throw away the space saver tire and you have an unique set of wheels. The 993 space saver rim even looks quite good (matter of opinion of course)!

greetings,
Walter
