Steel Wheels

Denser wheels positioned closer to the ground. Steel wheels are well-suited for challenging snowy roads or rough off-road terrain, yet their increased weight limits their performance in other aspects.

Wheels & Rims: The Manufacturing Process

Cast Wheels

Aluminum wheels are created by pouring molten aluminum into a mold. The wheel's shape is then shaped through either gravity or pressure casting methods.

Machine Wheels

The manufacturing process integrates casting, heating, spinning, and meticulous pressurization to infuse a mold with liquid aluminum and form the wheel.

Forged Wheels

The forging process transforms a solid block of aluminum into a durable wheel by subjecting it to intense heat and pressure. The outcome is a wheel that is lightweight, compact, and robust.

The perfect wheels for your vehicle and preferred ride experience depend on specific vehicle traits. When selecting wheels for your car, truck, or SUV, take the following into account:

Weight

The weight of the wheels has a significant effect on the performance of a vehicle. Heavier wheels can lead to longer braking distances and decreased handling, whereas lighter wheels can enhance maneuverability and braking capabilities.
