A forged wheel is made by forming its shape when it is warm and solid. To get maximum material density and weight reductions out of our highly rigid and durable aluminium alloys without forgoing top performance, they undergo an elaborate forging process. The heated centre of the rim or the entire rim well is compressed during several stages in a forging press under 5,000 to 8,000 tons of pressure to densify the material into its special form. Between the individual stages, the rim is repeatedly heated up to around 400 degrees Celsius. The result is a much stronger and lighter wheel that is able to handle very high levels of mechanical strain on the road.
