Default Help me pick between the 2- Enkei RP-F1/OZ Ultraleggera

Am torn between these 2 rims.
Been trying to find some specific info on them but not much succesful.
Will be buying in 15in 4-lug.
Roads in my area are bad so will need something strong.

Cant find any info if both or them are forged and which is lighter?

enkei will is not forged. just cast aluminum.......oz wheels are cast as well and weight is 12 lbs...weights a lot for a 15 inch wheel for that price....rota wheels and konig heliums weight less and a less price

you are incorrect....

the RP-F1's from Enkei ARE forged using their "MAT" technology or whatever they call it. both are pretty sweet wheels though...

RP-F1's have been around a lot, and the Ultraleggra's i havent seen around much.

rpf-1's are semi-forged(roll forged) kinda like ssr's SSF technology for added strength
