Go one piece forged. I heard from a very reliable source that most 2-3piece wheels by companies like DPE, iforged etc... are all sourced from the same place and are not forged - China. Only the face is forged which doesn't help much when 99% of the bends/cracks occurs on the inner and outer lips.

If you're worried about strength, it doesn't matter if it's Forged or now. It matters if the wheel is VIA/JWL or TUV certified.

If a wheel isn't certified, then you have NO WAY to tell if it's strong enough for your car.
