I would like to hear what everyone thinks of the quality of the Forgestar D5 vs weld RTS wheels. I am trying to decide on used Weld RTS or new forgestars.

Heard from multiple sources now that the D5's have had issues pulling out beadlock threads. As far as quality, weld has it locked up...

Having both at this point Weld on my 2016, Forgestar on my 18. (both Non Beadlock so cant comment on that)

The Welds are Nicer..... but by how much, im not exactly sure.

Both are extremely light wheel options.

Both have quality finishes

If I did it all over again I would just purchase the Forgestar and put the extra money to other mods.

You def have to weigh out what your priorities are, budget, end goal etc. Then make decisions that will get you there.

I went with the forgestar. I could spend 1100 a piece on bead locks
