brabus replica wheels

good day guys
i am looking for some information on the wheels for my 2016 s63
i did find brabus replica wheels and was wondering if it is good idea
the manufacturer or seller in taiwan , wheels forged . i believe original brabus wheels are cast
is there any issuie i might have (i read stories of replica wheels vibrating at 60-70-80 mph) , whats major difference cast vs forged (i believe some of the mercedes wheels manufactured in taiwan as well and they are forged (gt63 wheels forged but i think they made in hungary , 20 inch s63 wheels made in taiwan)
seller stating that wheels are forged and made to order at $4500
planning to go 21 , can you also suggest offset , width , tire size . i use the car mostly for highway driving between chicago and milwaukee 1-2 times a week , would like to have wheels flush with the fenders and car to be bit lowered (not slammed) , comfortable riding without any rubbing is the priority (i know that comfort will be sacrificed with 21)
thank you

Forged wheels are much stronger and also lighter. I would not put a cast rim on this heavy of a car, especially if you are running 21" wheels. Ride will be very harsh and you will probably still bend them depending on the design. Offset is 37MM I believe but I would go with 43MM as that will push them out 6MM which should still give enough clearance to not have rubbing but will look better than factory offset. 10MM does introduce rubbing based on my experience.

What do you think about flow forged?? I'm considering a second set to use as a summer set.

Not sure, I have not heard of them before. I have had good luck with the factory 10 spokes though.
