[QUOTE="neovenator, post: 2059656, member: 74011"] The concern about rubbing just comes from me being overly cautious as I'm new to modifying trucks + off-roaders haha, this is my first performance vehicle that isn't a coupe, sedan or hatch. "True" forged is overkill for my use-case for 99% street road use, but the OEM beadlocks which I assume are "true" forged aren't too bad price-wise (except Gen 1) for what you get. But if I go the aftermarket route, I'm only looking at flow / rotary forged options for the lightweightness (pointless in a 3 ton truck, I get it haha), but mainly for [I][B]durability[/B][/I]. I try to stick with OEM or better quality in parts. Our roads aren't the greatest where I live so I try to be mindful when I'm driving, but with my luck I've been able to crack "reputable" brand's aftermarket cast wheels in two of my previous cars. When I switched to flow-forged, I haven't been able to crack it with our roads that are forever under construction. Maybe the cast wheels would survive fine on the Raptor on street driving with potholes and those sheets of metal they place over cut up roads in comparison to a car, but I really don't want to find out for myself [/QUOTE]
