D2 Introduces Forgestar Wheels to C63 Owners
Hey Guys thought we would update you guys with a product line that offers custom fitment, light weight, and available in multiple finishes for the C63. This wheel line is called Forgestar and here is a little history on the product:
Forgestar Performance Wheels is proud to introduce the world's first one piece lightweight custom flow formed wheel lineup.
Flow Forming is a production procedure that turns the wheel (or rim section) over a special mandrel and three hydraulic rollers using tremendous pressure. The pressure and turning then force the rim area to form against the mandrel, creating the shape and width of the rim. During Flow Forming, the rim actually "flows" down to create the full rim width. During Flow Forming, pressure applied to the cast rim actually changes its mechanical properties, so its strength and impact values become similar to those of a forged rim. That translates to up to 15% less weight when compared to a standard cast wheel.
Sizes:
19x8.5-11" Widths
