gravity cast< low pressure cast< form flowed < Forged
This is how wheels are made in the order from weakest (gravity cast) to strongest (forged)
Simply put cheap gravity cast wheels will bend/crack more easily than a forged wheel.
I've had cheap replica wheels before and they bend like swiss cheese. Might seem like you are saving money in the beginning but in the long run you'll end up spending more money since you have to keep fixing or replacing those cheap wheels.
