From what I understand.. "flow formed" and "rotary forged" are another way of saying "cast". The wheels are supposedly higher quality than a normal cast wheel, which I can believe.. but at the end of the day it's still a cast wheel. Base your decision off of the design you like, forgestar is a good company!

I'm in the market for wheels and this is something I'm leaning towards but I'm just doing more homework before I pull the trigger. Thanks in advance.
It's somewhat in between, price of cast wheels, weight of forged wheels. My 19x10 F14 rim weights the same as a Volk GT-30 20x9.5 rim. 25 lbs

If it's a custom order, it'll take ~4 weeks.

the gt30 is a 2 or 3 piece wheel right? I know there are some companies like advan or weds that are cast (or have cast barrels or faces, I forget which) that are great quality. 25 lbs for a 19? Pretty good considering an 18" work emotion weighs about the same. SSR Type F is a few pounds less also and is decently priced but Volks are just out of my price range.

PM price/eta for f14 in 19" fitment for S model shipped to 92780 please.

+1 on this. I was very surprised how light my 20s were. I haven't felt my stocks without tires on them, but felt like half the weight of my Vossens. :P
