Boss_302,

Great work and thanks for the research and the time you took to put this together.

I decided today that if I was going to spend the $$ for the any wheel, then I would just buy what I thought would look the best and perform the best as it was originally made.

So, I'll just decided between the 302S machine look or just buy a Matte Black wheels.

I appreciate the input and evidence.
 
Just because a PC wheel broke doesn't mean it was the PC process that caused the breakage. For every PC wheel that has broken there's probably a million that haven't. Just saying.

PTRocks,

Those are awesome. According to FRPP the 302R are only in 18"??

That's correct. That's why I bought them, the selection for 18" tires is much better, and less expensive. The 302R wheels are 18"x10" and require special lug nuts, preferably bigger studs as well. The 302S wheels are 18x 9.5", come in black, and use the stock studs and nuts. They are also forged (see the pics of cracked cast wheels above)
