Nope. This is the one wheel (I think) that is OEM and forged. Big, fat muthuhs.

Default YUP, The 5 spokes that came with the sport package 4.2 are forged
the ones offered in 2000 are cast. The TT ones are 17 x 7.5 and those are cast. PSK 4.2's got the real deal. =))

Default You sure the TT polished wheels are cast? I thought they were the same as 4.2 but...
... with different bolt pattern. I don't think it is possible to polish a cast aluminum wheel.
