I think some people call flow forming flow forging or rotary forging then end up using the term "forged" when they are not truly forged with the large expensive presses that only a handful of manufacturers have.

Given the weight of these TRD/GR forged 17" wheels, I would assume that they are likely rotary forged. Too bad they never always disclose who manufacturers their parts. I know sometimes they do as the zenki 6pot/4pot trd bbk's were brembos and their SF2 18" wheels were manufactured by TWS

Which manufacturers actually press forge wheels? I know of Rays, TWS, and BBS off the top of my head, are there more?
