Ordering and manufacturing of custom rims
Here we go through the main features of the process. Included are pictures of two different rims along the way
You can order and pay for the rims directly from our existing models in our online store, or order a rims designed for you or according to your own design needs (drawings, photography or 3d models). Our designers will iterate the design until you are satisfied. If you order a existing model from our online store, we will also contact you in this case and double check the order and the details form you, after which we will start the manufacturing process itself.
At the very beginning, we go through what exactly you want and how the goals can be realized - For the ready-made model, this is straightforward, but sometimes the ideas are wild and you can set aside some time for planning them. The design of the rim must pass stress simulations according to JWL and VIA standards and our own analysis depending on your needs. There are exceptions, of course. For example, a 3x durability factor is used in rims for track use, and this guarantees their durability in extreme conditions.

When we agree with you on the implementation and also the mechanical simulations, images of the factory meet our requirements, production can begin. Production always starts with a blank 6061-T6 forged aluminum billet. There are blanks for each rim size, and depending on the rim model, different blanks can be used to achieve different results.

When the milling of the blank is finished, the rims go to balance testing and inspection for tight tolerances.

After passing the inspections, the rim goes to polishing/painting phases, depending on the case.

After this, the rim is checked again to make sure everything is still in order and within tolerances. The rim barrel lips are also checked for vertical throw.

Finally, packaging. We guarantee that the level of packaging is at least damn good. Having seen the packaging styles of several factories, our factory packs the rims very well, so the rims survive the long journey to their destiination in good condition. Our packages are simple, with our logos and rim information. We don't pack rims in fancy pantsy boxes just to be thrown away. We strongly believe that you, too, will definitely value dent-free and high-quality rims more than fancy boxes.
