"Cup design92, Forged aluminium aka Cup1" - I thought the Cup Ones were cast alloy? Only forged Porsche wheels I can think of the the time are the 928/944Turbo SE wheels, which look a little like D90s.

I thought the same as you, but also believe that the magnesium 964RS cups are forged too.

If the Cup design 92 were forged, they would be much lighter IMO.

Indeed, the forged wheels I have had and seen had very thin spoke profiles. I would have thought, from the design and weight of the Cup Ones, that they are all cast, even the mag. RS wheels. Would like to think they were forged; an added bonus for me
