teken, i do not believe these are totally forged wheels. THese are along the same line as Rota wheel. same size and weight. Even the same look besides polished lip. I wouldnt be suprised if they were made together at same factory.

Hot Die Forged wheels 4/28/2002
Velox is introducing its newest wheel; PG-5S. This new wheel features the best available forging on the market today. Hot Die forging is the use of 10,000 ton presses that slams into heated 6061 aircraft quality aluminum. This process creates the strongest available forging on the market today, allowing the PG-5S 17inch to achieve an ultra low 12.5lbs with load rating of 1364 lbs per wheel. 17 inch release can be seen on the July issue of Import Tuner.

Quoted from http://www.veloxperformance.com/press.asp

Teken: I would seriously look into that claim...
i saw a banner in a magazine with VELoX's new wheel line. and they had this one forged wheel ( black with polished lip ) that weighed in at 12.5 pounds and these are 17's
