I've had both.......please don't buy the iForged. The quality isn't all that, and I think they're rather soft. The Volks are awesome...go that route instead. I don't miss the iForged one bit.

IForged customer service is not good at all to say the least. ive been waiting 2 months for a replacement rim and have a feeling im gonna be waiting even longer. even though i call them about every other day and they never tell me anything really i doubt they have even started on my order. origionally it was only suppose to take 3 weeks 
Go VOLK

I have 20" Iforged Senekas and I havent had any problems due to the wheel...Great rims and strong....Ive hit alot of those famous NYC potholes and had no problems with cracking or bending until I hit an especially deep sharp hole that would bend any rim known to man...
Damn NY streets...

Im not sure but if iFORGE uses the same 5051 aluminum barrel as HRE, then you will have problems as well as not being able to use the wheel on the track. Id recommend going with 20inch TE37's

Anyone has thoughts on forged Rims on strength.. Volks or Iforged. .or what else?
Thanks

Volk = Forged barrel = Strong. JWL tested and VIA approved
Iforgery = Spun cast barrel = Not so strong. Tested? No one really knows.

I own a set of Volks....love them....IMO, they're the absolute best quality for the money. As you can see, no one has an issue with Volk's wheels.
If you want a good deal on them, try contacting Dusty at MVP motorsports. He's one of the nation's largest distributors for Volk wheels (and he's a great guy). Best of luck!

Dam, you must have some serious resentment against them. You haven't missed a beat with the IFORGERY comment. They were slow delivering, but compensated me accordingly, I have hit some serious pot holes with no damage to follow. No cracks here-bad *** rims.
