Need help deciding!!!!

[tonyv107]

I'm having trouble deciding between Gram Lights 57Maximum Black w/Red Stripe
and Volk Racing TE37 Time Attack Black w/Red Stripe

Are gram lights a high quality wheel? i noticed they're 1 pc cast but fairly cheap as opposed to the Volks which are about double the price and 1 pc forged (wewt!). I've been looking for 1 pc forged wheels with the same look but these folks are all i can find. Any suggestions between the two? Also will these both fit the stock SI tires?

Gram Lights and Volk Racing are both RAYS Engineering brands. Google is thy friend :)

The price difference is due to the cast vs. forged characteristic. Forged wheels cost much more, all else equal. It used to be that forged wheels were also much lighter and stronger, but these days advancements in casting technology have erased much of their formally overwhelming advantage. Forged wheels are still considered superior, but the reduction in the magnitude of their advantage over quality cast wheels makes the prememium involved look excessive for street applications subject to the typical bang/buck consideration.
