…technology. MAP is a highly automated system. Each process is connected in a single-piece flow system that transports wheels from the melting process, through heat treatment and on to machining. The flow forming process produces a finer, more even aluminum structure, yielding a light yet strong…
…MAP (Most Advanced Production) and flow-forming forging technology. MAP is a highly automated system. Each process is connected in a single-piece flow system that transports wheels from the melting process, through heat treatment and on to machining. The process of spinning the rim vs. casting it…
…Cast Wheels This is the most common type of aluminum wheel. The casting of wheels is the process of getting molten aluminum inside a mold to form a wheel. There are different ways this can be accomplished and although it sounds simple, this is truly an art when done properly. Gravity Casting…
…This process, which is directly derived from O.Z. Racing's experience in F1, produces wheels that are extremely light and strong. The flow forming process and HLT technology combines to create mechanical characteristics similar to those of a forged wheel. This permits a dramatic reduction…
Enkei wheels bring sophistication to the track and everyday roadway. Founded in Japan in 1950, Enkei's worldwide presence ranges from Asia to North America, Latin America and Europe. Enkei wheels are divided into three distinct groups, each of which features the latest wheel designs while Enkei…
…worthy successor to the popular K1 Racing with the new Kosei K5R. Just like its predecessor, the new K5R is lightweight, attractive and its flow formed construction should be just as durable as the K1 Racing. The new Kosei K5R is available for many popular 15x7, 15x8, 17x7, 17x8 and 17x9…
…is derived from O.Z.'s experience in F1 and produces a wheel that is extremely light and strong. Combining the HLT technologies with the flow forming process creates mechanical features similar to those of a forged wheel. This allows for a dramatic reduction in wheel weight while enhancing…
…the first few miles of driving. Usually during the day, the warmer ambient temperatures and more frequent vehicle use will not allow flat spots to form. However, anytime a vehicle goes in for ride-related services (tire rotation, rebalancing, or to diagnose ride disturbances), the vehicle should be…
…further explore winter tires for your Porsche. Starke Design Wheels are manufactured to the tightest tolerances using low pressure casting and flow forming technology to achieve a lightweight combination of strength and durability. All Starke wheels accept the factory Porsche center cap, are…
…with polished stainless lips, they will take the stock Porsche center cap -- a BBS first! Low pressure cast and shaped using BBS' exclusive flow forming process, they will provide all the strength of a forged wheel - at half the price! Available in: 19X8.5 5-130 ET51 19X9 5-130 ET53 19X10 5-130…
…uses rollers to compress and elongate the material along the barrel of a low-pressure cast aluminum wheel to obtain the desired profile. This flow forming process, also known as spinning, produces wheels that are extremely light and strong, with mechanical characteristics similar to those of a…
…vibration. To increase strength and resistance to pothole damage, designers forwent a traditional gravity casting in favor of a pressure cast and flow formed wheel. As icing on the proverbial cake, the CH-R II will also accept the Original Equipment center cap, helping to maintain a subtle and…
…Enkei Racing Series is offering the RPF1 in a 15x8 +28 offset in bright silver and black finishes. This wheel offers Enkei's MAT technology (flow formed) for near forged strength while keeping weight down to a mere 11.3 pounds. Kosei K5R Enkei Racing Series RPF1 While these aggressive fitments…
If you're an automotive enthusiast, you likely know the name Enkei for their outstanding high quality aluminum alloy wheels. Enkei has been producing lightweight, strong and reliable wheels in Japan since 1950 for everything from Original Equipment options to Formula One and WRC rally racing.…
…when the wipers aren't on. The silicone film acts much like the rain-repelling treatments sold in automotive parts stores by causing water to form small beads on the windshield surface. Because the material is already in the PIAA Super Silicone blades, the inconvenience of having to periodically…
