Our magnesium forged wheel designs are growing at a very fast rate, as demand intensifies for the super lightweight forged material, manufactured and available for road or track applications.

So why are magnesium wheels in such demand, well for a couple of stand out reasons, the strength of the material being one as well as the weight of the product, this along with the reduced unsprung weight is also a huge benefit, with so many more advantages.

They are good at dissipating the energy of vibrations, magnesium wheels improve acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle, as the mass of the car and moment of inertia of the wheels is also reduced, tyre and suspension component wear is also drastically reduced, along with braking distances, the benefits of magnesium are endless, with the only negative side being the slightly higher price over a forged aluminium alternative.

Back in November we showcased new forged magnesium wheel design from GT3RR, which is a little homage to the OZ F1 wheel design and they have been making little detail changes over the last few weeks to make it exactly how they want the final design to look, and we are happy to report the wheel is ready to machine and to say we are excited is an understatement.

Our BMW Z4 GT3 V8 will be one car that this wheel design will be fitted to, 11x19 and 13x19 combo with the Matt black centre and Gloss black barrels, we are very much looking forward to see this wheel on our finished Z4 GT3. Another couple of builds we have going on that will also be fitted with F1R will be a fresh UK Speedwells Supra build in White and a Nissan GTR GT3 build that’s happening in Texas, both wheel sets ups are going to really enhance the look of this design, with huge lips and maximum concave, which is going to look incredible.

The sizes for this design are the usual 3 piece wheel sizes, 18” 19” 20” 21” 22” and 24” will also be added to the size list if required, all widths, colours and applications will be available, including centre lock and bespoke builds, building something crazy and would like this wheel design, lets discuss your requirements in detail.

The design is available in both forged magnesium and forged aluminium, for the people looking for the ultimate lightweight wheel the magnesium forged wheel will not disappoint, it’s really is incredibly light weight and can be used on the track or the street.

This week has seen us take delivery of a set of our Forged VAD VM1 wheels for our good friend Sean, that will be fitted to his amazing Speedwells Wide Body Toyota Supra, and we are happy that he was so persistent with this design, its getting on a bit and we did try and influence our all new Version 2 of the wheel, but he stuck to his guns and was relentless in his pursuit of our original design.

This particular wheel design is now the best part of seven years old, but it still looks fresh in today’s market, it’s a design that looks good on any vehicle, you just cant go wrong with a mesh style design, its no wonder that BBS stick to their tried and tested design.

13x19 2-Piece VAD Forged VM1, Matte Black Centre, Gloss Black Rim

The VM1 comes in various configurations and what we have added to our line up over the last few years is 2 piece version, which is lighter and less prone to leaks than its 3 piece brother, as well as being a slightly cheaper option, available in all of the concave profiles, we prefer the look of the spokes having the extended legs, rather than when the spokes sit on top of the flange of the wheel, but this concave configuration of the extended legs is a heavier set up so its personal choice depending on the look you want and the intended application.

We offer this design in 18” 19” 20” 21” & 22” with a 24” option available on request, available now in 1, 2 or 3-piece construction with a super lightweight forged magnesium 2-piece option now available in 18” 19” & 20” sizes, for road or track use.
