Regarding forged vs. cast, I'd just go with a reputable manufacturer and whichever wheel you prefer for looks and can afford. The weight difference isn't that big a deal. Material is one thing, but design is really more important. Very strong material with a too-tight radius at the wrong place can fail. Weaker material with fewer and less intense stress concentrations can be strong and durable and reasonably lightweight.

Thanks for the input. I’m currently running a similar BBK and while the car stops well I’m going through expensive pads way to quickly, only getting 200 laps. I want something with a much higher thermal capacity and giant pads that will last me 10 plus track days. So that’s the motivation to swap for much larger rotors and a kit that was made for racing.
