they have different manufacturing processes and the cast wheel finished product ends up being heavier. i think it has to do with the tighter grain structure on the forged wheel. someone correct me if i'm wrong... it's been a long time since school. |

Wow, How long have I been asleep? That was some read. One thing to remember with the Magnesium Rims. If you ever have a brake fire and those rims start to burn...DO NOT USE WATER!!! flame.gif
KAAAYEFFINBOOM!!! Makes some great sparklers too. Ever see a car with a magnesium motor burn and the fire dept gives it a good dose of water? Nasty!!! Basically I had nothing to add but wanted chime in. All in the name of safety. chairshot.gif Chuck

Well then ya need to open them peepers just a bit more. Not an everyday thing but it does happen. When you drive 2200 miles a week on the highway you DO see things.
Just a comment to get things started? Poke.gif Just like the guy in the exhaust forum that sees "thousands" of Mustangs with loud exhaust getting way with it but "he" gets singled out and ticketed in his Yaris. Hmmmm....Thousands? Chuck
