I see my work here is done.

It was changed as a cost savings.

Forged = RPO PH7

Cast = RPO N90

I think the forged wheel will be smoother on the backside, whereas the cast wheel will have more of an "as cast" texture. Any visible parting lines are wider on a forged part than on a cast part.

I had a set of rallys with snow tires mounted that I ran in the winter. My aluminum wheels never saw snow.

I think only the hoops are forged, not the centers on the earlier ones. The hoops on the inside of the forged ones are MUCH smoother.

here are the only markings i could find on mine.

I really like the way that center cap looks with the bullet on it. Where did you find those?
The centers are the same as the rally wheel center caps. All rally centers have a hole in the center under the sticker. The hole is perfectly placed to mount these 3" bullets from ebay. I had to buy bolts the correct length, used lock washers, and put epoxy on the bolts when i screwed them in to keep the bullet from coming loose.

Good to know, thanks!
