Well...
DTM are produced by Iforged!! When I was going through my saga with DTM, Stan said he had to send them back to Iforged. And it wassnt just me who had problems. Dozens of folks on vortex has issues with both companies. At the time I ordered mine, I convinced my friend (who had an A6 at the time) to get some Iforged because of the price and (what I thought at the time) quality/strength. I got mine...they vibrated/wobbled. We crossed our fingers hoping that my friend's wouldn't be the same. He got them...they wobbled. Not to mention that I bent 2 of mine. And they were only 18's! They are "forged"...but not really. The outers (where you need strength) are spun...which is not as strong as true forging. The only reason Im so nutz about people not buying DTM's or Iforged is because I dont want anyone to go through what I went through.

Re: Well...
DTM ARE "NOT" PRODUCED BY IFORGED! We are totally separate company. If you have problem with DTM contact Stan.
Our 3 piece wheels halves are spun from a forged sheet. The front half (outer) have double back for stength. I am not aware of any 3 piece forged wheel company that do not use spun forged halves.
Many of our customers have reported hitting big pothole without damage. Here is an example:
