I found the anwser to myself its CAST. But this just raise another question doesn't it mean its steel instead of alumium?

The Axis Milano's are cast, but they can take A LOT of abuse. Pretty strong wheel, I think its the best wheel for the money. Beats ADR and Konig for the quality.

Cast is also alluminum, it's just not top quality alluminum. Forged alluminum is much stronger and lighter. A few companies that use forged alluminum are HRE, BOZE, and VOLK.

The 3 piece Se7en is 3 time more then the Se7enMod. Around $1200 each. But then again its custom made for each application.
