Hey it's no problem...

First of all, I had FORGED wheels, not iForged, iForged is a brand of wheels, but FORGED wheels is the name of the process of which the wheel was made

I had the OEM 19 Forged Ray's wheels.

Now, I've had any set of wheels before, and to be perfectly honest, weight is overrated, Size is a lot more important.

For all I know, the OEM 18's could be heavier than the 19's, since forged wheels are usually strong and light, but because of the UNSPRUNG WEIGHT, the 19's will still give me a harder time to "initiate" the spin.

I've had various wheels sizes on my previous cars, 16, 17, 18, 19, and trust me, there is a huge difference, but then, the bigger (not dub edition BIG haha), the better it looks with a proper drop, and usually the HANDLING gets better, since there is less tire between the wheel and the road.

I had the 17's, 18's and the 19's. The 18's are good because the tires are cheap and they look decent. I'll stick with the 19's for better handling and stronger wheels. Sometimes I'll hit a pot hole that I KNOW will destroy a rim, but the 19's have held up so far.
