Found a set of wheels I like that are just different enough from the BC Forged KL-31. Can't determine if these are steel or cast forged aluminum and whether they are heavy like the OEM wheels or lighter. Also know nothing about the manufacturer and if they are quality wheels or cheap knockoffs. Any input would be appreciated.

By the way does anyone know the weight of a single black OEM Explorer ST 21" street pack wheel less tire?

These are the wheels at this link.

They’re one piece cast aluminum...not forged. They claim 37lbs for the 22x10.5...I’d say that’s optimistic for a cast wheel in that size. Giovanna has been around forever...they’re a fine company. Gianelle is one of their budget brands. There’s a line of forged wheels under that same parent company called GFG Forged that makes real nice stuff.

Love love the white painted plastic pieces... Changes the entire look of the vehicle. . The wheels are just okay in my opinion.. We all have different taste.
