Q: What does forged mean on a wheel, and does it matter on a mini?

Forging compresses a solid aluminum billet under extreme pressure, aligning the grain structure so a wheel comes out stronger for its weight than one cast from molten metal. On a desk piece, strength is beside the point, but material is not: 6061-T6 forged aluminum takes machining detail cleanly and carries real weight in the hand, which is why this feels nothing like a toy.
