Forged wheels are wheels manufactured by forging. The wheels manufactured in this way can remove internal pores and cracks to the greatest extent. And it is often used in the form of multiple forging, which can ensure the removal of various material defects, increase the internal stress of the material, and the toughness will be better, which can greatly improve the impact resistance and tear resistance at high speeds.
Advantages and disadvantages of forged wheels
The advantages of forged wheels are high strength, higher safety, strong plasticity, lighter weight, good heat dissipation capacity, and fuel saving. At the same time, forged wheels are also the most advanced method of manufacturing wheels. The strength of this kind of wheels is about 1 to 2 times greater than that of cast wheels, and 4 to 5 times that of ordinary iron wheels, so it is more robust, crashworthy, toughness and fatigue resistance. They are also significantly stronger than cast wheels, and they are not easy to crush and break. The only disadvantage is that it is expensive and the production cycle is long.
In addition, riders should not blindly choose large rims when upgrading their rims. When choosing a shape, they must take into account the weight of the rim. If you only upgrade the large-size wheels for a good-looking appearance and increase the corresponding weight, this will inevitably lead to an increase in the fuel consumption of the entire car.
