Magnesium and Carbon Fibre forged wheels

This year has seen us part company with various wheel brands, companies we have worked a long side for a long time, but quality along with business ethics is something we feel very strongly about, we are old school at VAD, where standards and decent morals mean everything, we don’t think that is a lot to ask for, if you use our name and brand to help your own brand we expect a bit of loyalty in return, as we are extremely loyal to the cause and the people and brands we work with, unfortunately this year it hasn't quite worked out the way we planned, but it’s a huge market with some great companies that make some great products, all you have to do is go and look and do your research, which is what we did, things happen for a reason and as we aren't the kind of company that wallows in pity feeling sorry for ourselves and things have a great way of coming full circle.

During our search for new products we came across Litespeed racing who we are working with on a couple of projects, the Mercedes Edition one with a set of full carbon and magnesium Monoblock wheels and our up and coming magnesium 3 piece wheels for our good friend Mark Poxton and his amazing McLaren F1, which we can’t wait to start.

Magnesium Wheel for McLaren F1

The McLaren F1 LM needs no introduction, it was in its day the pinnacle road racer, with beauty from any viewing point, it still looks as fresh today as the day it was launched, its one of our favorite cars of all time, so when we got a call to potentially work with one of our long time customers on a special build thats taking place, it was an offer we couldn't refuse.

We have worked with Mark from MJP racing for a number of years, making a few set of wheels for a number of his cars, the one that stands out was a set of our Trafficstar wheels on his Ultima GTR, Mark didn't want to follow the normal route of the standard old looking Ultima GTR wheel, he wanted fresh and modern, upsetting the purists along the way fit fitted our Trafficstar STR 9x19 front and 13x20 rear and it looked pretty spectacular.

He present project is pretty awe inspiring, most people are asking why you would change your original O.Z Chrono Magnesio wheel that you love, to a wheel design that will look the same, with the main reason being tyres and the rear size in particular, the 345/35R18 are like hens teeth, they are no longer manufactured, and the ones that are available are coming to the end of their DOT shelf life, so with a huge brake set up being manufactured for this project, it seemed like a no brainer to to make a larger wheel to house the new brakes and have a better tyre selection.

The wheel design will be an homage to the original O.Z classic 5 spoke, but will be 19" instead of the 18" original set up, we are building the wheel design in 3 piece configuration in 10" & 13" widths, centers will be ultra light weight forged magnesium, with titanium fasteners and all painted in anthracite to match the current set up, this is one wheel build that really excites us, more details will follow as the build happens, with a big shout out to Patrick from Litespeed Racing for stepping up to the plate for our request.
