Default I really like the new MMD 551C wheels

To be totally honest, unless the wheel is forged, you're paying for a brand name if you're paying 300+ for a wheel. Unless the wheel costs about 1000 or more dollars you're likely getting a cast wheel or a wheel that is not 100% forged. I personally love how Forgestar for example uses some "rotary" forging process but the wheels don't weigh much less than a low pressure cast wheel costing less than half the price. I don't need a set of wheels and tires that cost a quarter or a third of the total price of my car. I could understand it on a nice 911 or an Italian car, but not a run of the mill mustang. When I get some extra cash, I'll be content with a nice set of darkstars or a set of light Enkies.
