i'm planning on running 16's on non-runflats, so i should be ok
while volks and bbs forged would be nice, it's a bit hard to justify the cost
also hate to burst your bubble, but ssr's aren't forged

The Enkei Racing rims are supposed to be pretty strong.

don't hit any potholes with those junk cast wheels .
PF01's aren't cast.
Mat -
Enkei Racing Series wheels are manufactured using the MAT (Most Advanced Technology) process. MAT is a new technology for producing an aluminum wheel by combining Enkei's MAP (Most Advanced Production) and flow-forming forging technology. MAP is a highly automated system.
Each process is connected in a single-piece flow system that transports wheels from the melting process, through heat treatment and on to machining. The process of spinning the rim vs. casting it to both shape and elongate it produces a finer, more even aluminum structure and ensures the wheel will remain lightweight yet strong.
The complete MAT process has a drastic impact on the microstructure of aluminum and results in outstanding improvement of the mechanical property of the material.

Thanks, Alex. I guess I could always file a little bit off the weights if it came down to that. Just to doublecheck, are you sure the Ultra OZ's have a little more breathing room than these Enkeis?

I just got the enkei edr9's and they are also made using the MAT technology. They're priced pretty reasonable, but aren't very light.
