Obviously cast is cheaper than forged, but cast is more in my price range.
Should I be aware of any gotcha's or issues with either ??

Hopefully your goal is to "upgrade" (quickly becoming my pet peeve most misused word in Porsche world) your wheels to something more pleasing to the eye without degrading the safety or performance of your car. IMO choosing a wheel that is designed for your Porsche, hubcentric, simular offsets & lighter than the wheels you are replacing is more important than cast or forged. Casting processes have improved alot over the years & roll forging seems to be the latest & greatest.
