Default Need a STRONG wheel for these NYC Streets Any recomendations?

Trying to go with 19's or 20's but might have to settle for 18's with a drop. Regardless i want to go with a strong, heavy, durable one peice wheel for a GS. Any help would be greatly appreciated and if u know of any for sale in the tri-state area that would be great. Thanks in advance to all

In the city if you can afford to go forged, its not to say they are indestructable, as anything can be damaged, but they are much stronger. I have 30 and 25series 22" tires and drive in Bklyn, Manhanttan, etc etc and have no bends, cracks, etc

Hopefully this helps a little bit

How about Fabulous forged wheels? I heard they use 8000 tons of pressure on their billet vs most forged wheels use 4000 tons of pressure.

Don't know if its true but thats what I heard.
