H2 Wheel Question
Good afternoon Gents;
Are the H2 wheels forged?, I am Looking for some wheels with the right BS to replace stockers. "I don't want the Chromed Chinese made wheels I see in the tire shops around here". (they should be called "Chinese Racing" not American Racing)
Thanks
Doug.

No takers?

They look cast, not forged to to me. Safe load rating? I would bet it is 3200 lbs. per wheel. That was the load rating of the BF Goodrich that came on them when GM sold the H2.

Thanks Mark, I thought they may be cast, but was'nt sure. Although Ive had Eagle Alloys cast wheels on the 98 CTD and never had a problem.
Its hard finding a wheel that is forged and will fit the Dodge correctly that is made atleast somewhere on this continent (USA/Canada/Mexico).

I've been running H2 wheels for about 120,000 miles now. Towing a 9000 lb trailer and carrying loads of up to 3000 lbs in the bed.
I cannot find the load rating on the H2s. Guessing 3200 lbs is no more than a guess and may be incorrect. I'd like to know too, but I don't and I haven't had any problems with them.
