Default 2FORGE - Made to order forged racing wheels

Hi guys

Came across these and about to order some.

Wondered if anyone had experience? The brand seems new (<2015) and the guys at Suffolk Racing use it.

I have seen it mainly on BMWs but since is made to order I have also found a pic on a Cayman

This is the spec for the ones pictured here
18x8J ET41
18x10J ET36
5x130

Site says "rotary forged" which leads me to believe they are the same as every other roll-formed / flow-formed wheel. Cast the spokes and the "blank" for the barrel. Then heat the barrel and stretch / form / forge it with rollers. It allows a thinner rim / barrel to save some weight, but is still short of a fully forged wheel.
