Flow Forming construction for greater performance
This method produces a wheel that is lighter and stronger than a conventional cast wheel, which improves the car's responsiveness, road holding and driving comfort, while keeping excellent durability for everyday use.
In practice, the barrel of the wheel is heated, then stretched by rollers after casting. The metal becomes denser, which allows material to be removed at equal strength: the weight saving reaches up to 30% compared with a cast aluminium model.
