XXR Forged?

[ForYourOwnGood]

I came across these on ebay today, I've been looking for 18 inch wheels for a while now and just happened to spot these. I'm not 100% sure if they will clear the 4-pot GT brakes but I like the design. I'm also really not sure these are the legit forged ones, because most of those sets are $2200-2400. Anyone know about these? I'm thinking of just grabbing a set and returning them if they aren't as advertised. I know I'd need a hub ring because of the center bore but thats ok.

The description for those does say “forged”.
Here’s a little info to help you with your search for 18’s, since I was also doing his for my PP car w/ 6pot Brembos. First off, good news, you don’t have to use “forged” wheels, Almost any “Flow-Formed” wheel will clear, as long as it’s a med. concave, and the off-set is workable. Here’s a short list of 18’s I’ve tried that will clear.
1. Apex EC-7 group buy on gang-up happening now, ends 21 Sept
2. HRE FF15 Cjpony staggered set $1200
3. Flow-One F1, F2, F3, F4 TireRack some sizes on sale now below $200 ea.
4. MMR FS01
5.TE37
6. Forgestar CF5
The last 3 vary in price depending on who is selling them. There are several more, but those are the only ones I’ve actually tried, because they were the ones I was considering. My end choice are the Apex EC-7’s @ $1325 w/ bolt in TPMS color matched to the wheels
