SIMMONS FR-C FORGED WHEELS
Forged wheels are strong, dense, yet very light wheel that high performance car enthusiasts use for their cars almost exclusively. The term “forged” refers to making an alloy wheel by forcing a raw block of metal into a shape with extreme pressure. Forging is an expensive, multi-stepped process.
Being produced with intense pressure, forged wheel rims are 3 times stronger than cast ones.
Forged rims are light (25~30% lighter than cast rims), impact-resistant and durable, which are must for reducing the total weight of a car and lead to better fuel efficiency, longer brake system life and relatively safer driving.
Due to the light weight, Forged wheels will cut back on the wear and tear of the vehicle’s tyres, as well as increase the vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
The vehicle handling and maneuverability is increased, including faster braking and acceleration times.
Usual Cast wheels tend to be more porous than Forged ones. This means that a Forged wheel will hold a polished shine longer than a similarly polished Cast wheel.
Forged wheels have a higher density of grain structure than cast wheels. So Forged wheels are up to 300 times stronger than usual Cast wheels and can take more damage while lasting for a longer time.
