LOL @ "real iForged." Thanks for the chuckle.

FWIW, that iForged is a knock-off of the old HRE 841R.
I know this because I had one of the first sets of 841s back in the day.

Pretty much all wheels now a days are similar in style and design to something that's previously been made. There's only so much you can do to a 5-spoke wheel to make it different.

It's going to be pretty difficult to pinpoint who exactly makes the wheels. I would check the backside of the wheel to look for any stampings or perhaps etchings on the inner barrel for some identification.

Default Linea Corse Dyna

Check out a wheel made by Linea Corse, the Dyna. Lots of people on this forum have them and seem to like them. WheelDude sells them.
