1. Durable and safer Forged aluminum rings are 1-2 times stronger than cast aluminum rings and 4-5 times stronger than general iron rings, so they are stronger, have better toughness and fatigue resistance, and are safer. 2. Lightweight Forged wheels of the same size can be about 20% lighter in weight, and 1KG lighter on the wheel can increase 10 horsepower. In addition, the lightweight also signi...
An alloy wheel is an automobile wheel that is made of alloys of aluminum or magnesium. Getting a good run via cars and motorcycles, this segment has seen a sudden spurt in demand in the recent years. As magnesium was used earlier for making an alloy wheel, these wheels were often termed as mag wheels (MAG for magnesium). As compared to traditional steel wheels, This type wheel has the advantage of...
1. Heat dissipation requirements: If the car runs for a long time, it will make the car wheel very hot. What’s more, the braking system will also generate a lot of heat. If this heat is not released in time, it will bring a big problem to the driving safety of the car and may cause the tire to burst. The hollow design can increase the contact area between therim spokes and the air, which...

A negative-value rim measures the deviation value between the fixed surface of the rim and the centerline of the rim. Therefore, when a negative-value rim is a larger negative value, it means that the greater the deviation distance of the rim, the greater the degree of outward tilt. When you see the word ”offset", this will have an impact on the performance of the tires and the perf...
