WedsSport's vs Titan 7's 18x9.5?

I'm looking to buy a couple sets of wheels to clear larger brakes. Titan 7 wheels are forged which I like but they are also somehow 1LB per corner heavier than the WedsSport's in the same 18x9.5 size. Surprisingly the non-forged WedSport's are more expensive. Although the price difference is negligible. Titan 7's have a +40 offset instead of the +45 on the WedsSport's. I would think the +40 would provide better fitment, is that correct?

Anyone have experience with one or both of these wheels at the track? Buttonwillow seems to really like to bend wheels. I'm starting to learn how much of a consumable wheels really are. So cost and easily available are definitley important to me. I have also heard that forged wheels are not necessarily more resistant to bending than quality flow form wheels, not sure if this is true? I am open to other wheels of similar cost and quality if people have other suggestions?

Leaning towards the WedsSports but I would prefer the +40 offset.

Maybe I will buy a set of each and report back which holds up better...
