flow forged and rotary forged are the same. cast spokes with spun forged barrels. lighter than straight cast. not as strong as monoblock forged.

the stock tire diameters for f3x's are 26". not sure why you're concerned about ride if you're going with 20's, but 285/35/20 is 27.9" diameter. you are lowering your car but raising it back up due to the tire diameter. the gearing at the wheels is also changed (for the worse) and the increased tire weight and will likely affect your acceleration and braking although i'm not sure how noticeable. speedo and odometer are also affected. however, if you're not concerned with any of this go for it...

i were doing this type of setup, i'd go 20x9 with 255/30 (26" dia.) front and 20x10 with 275/30 (26.5" dia.) rear.

although both choices are nice, i'd prolly go PUR FL04, somebody just got these in another thread.
