I'm almost 59 years old. I've owned elevendy hundred vehicles, including many hi-po sports cars. I've never purchased a forged wheel. I've also never had a single experience of breaking or shattering a wheel in a pothole. YMMV.
Sure is funny how the same folks who complain about paying a high rate to have a trained, qualified, experienced technician diagnose and repair thier vehicle are the same folks demanding we pay them a high rate to make a coffee (not referring to you, BTW).
