Are forged wheels better, lighter or heavier?
The weight of an extremely lightweight wheels depends on the following factors:
①Model:. High horsepower and heavy vehicle models are not suitable for lightweight wheels,
as they are prone to deformation and cracking, so lightweight wheels are not recommended.
At this time, the wheel hub load is required to be above 850kg. On the contrary,
if the vehicle is light and has low horsepower, you can choose a light wheel hub with a load of 690-750kg, such as a car with a displacement of 2.0T and a vehicle weight of 1.6 tons or less.
② Wheel shape: There are many piles of materials such as those with 6 or more widths and wide width.
Representative wheel types include Mercedes-Benz flat cake series, American Rotiform brand, etc.
③Lightweight design: By strengthening the mechanical structure of the spokes, using multiple narrow and thick mesh-shaped cross-cutting hollows or hollowing out the excess parts;
polishing and reducing thickness (dissipation), etc. Here we pay special attention to explaining why designers are best at polishing and reducing thickness. What to use?
In actual driving, when a car passes over a pothole road quickly, because the wheel rim (wheel rim) is thin, when the impact force is transmitted to the wheel hub through the tire, the wheel rim is the first to be stressed.
At this time, the thin wheel rim is easily deformed. The scattered force protects the wheel hub, protecting the wheel hub from breaking and preventing the integrity of the entire wheel hub from causing greater damage to the vehicle.
If the wheel hub is deformed but not cracked, it is not covered by the warranty. Generally, in this case, car owners think that they are artificial. As a result, we will not seek compensation from the factory or brand.
What kind of wheels will the final owner choose?
Depends on your car model and usage scenario. Don’t blindly pursue lightweight and ignore safety performance.
I hope everyone can choose forged wheels that are suitable for themselves and look beautiful and safe.
