It's a good general rule, but keep in mind that a poorly designed forged wheel is still a piss poor wheel, while a well designed cast wheel can be very strong and relatively light. Just look at the APEX wheels as an example. It's cast, but as light as a VOLK wheel and JWL/VIA tested.

.
Slowcars, can't help you with that but if the wheel is made by BBS and VOLK and for this car, it'll be fine.

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
