They are cast:

Quote:
JEGS Sport Mag Wheels are designed in styles used by the top pros and traditional drag racers alike. Engineered and tested to meet J-2530 SAE aftermarket specifications. Each wheel is cast from A-356 alloy which is then CNC Machined and polished to a high luster finish. Includes a polished aluminum center cap.
