Forged wheels?
What are the good manufacturers for forged wheels for trucks?
There's guys like HRE and ADV.1 but even though they have 'truck' lines, don't really look like truck wheels, if you know what I mean.

Being forged typically carries a hefty price tag.
TrailReady's are pressure cast and half the cost of the method forged. LOTs of race trucks / rock buggies run TRs - it's what I run, TR HDs.
Ordering so instead of paying Ford $995 for a set of 4 20" PVD wheels, I'd be ok spending an extra $1000 for a set of 4 forged 20" wheels

you have already stated you aren't fond of 'non truck' looking wheels so the weight savings between forged and non-forged (beefy truck looking wheel like Method) won't be nearly as significant. If you aren't going to beat on it off road or race it, the strength difference doesn't appear to be an issue either. I'm not trying to steer you in one direction or the other, but why spend the extra dough when there are thousands of non-forged - perfectly strong /light enough - options out there?

I do like the Ford 20" PVD $995 'look' but am willing to pay up to get much stronger wheels. In the NE so off-roading would be light but have cracked a few wheels in the winter when all the wonderful potholes emerge.
