How are forged wheels made?
The process of making forged wheels begins with a solid block of aluminum alloy. This block, called a billet, is heated to a high temperature and placed into a forging press. The press applies tremendous pressure to the billet, shaping it into the desired shape of the wheel.

What makes forged wheels unique?
One of the key benefits of the forging process is that it allows for the creation of complex shapes and designs that would be difficult or impossible to achieve through traditional casting methods. This means that forged wheels can have intricate details and unique designs that are not possible with cast wheels.
