 Insights:

 Meet the AWZZ, our best-selling forged wheel for the Tesla Model S and Model X. But what does “forged” mean?

Think of forged wheel technology as the art of transforming a single piece of top-grade aluminum alloy—specifically 6061-t6 aluminum—into a wheel that’s both incredibly strong and impressively light. We start with a forged billet—a solid piece of this high-quality metal that has already been forged to enhance its strength and structural integrity. This process changes the metal at its core, making it tougher than traditional cast wheels. Using precise CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining, we sculpt this forged billet into the final wheel design with meticulous detail. This process allows us to achieve the intricate styling and exact specifications that make our wheels a perfect fit for your Tesla.

In plain English, forged wheels are like the superheroes of the wheel world. They’re stronger and lighter, which means they can boost your vehicle’s performance. You’ll feel better acceleration, smoother braking, and sharper handling because the wheels reduce the weight your suspension has to deal with. Plus, they’re built to last, standing up to the bumps and potholes you encounter on the road. So not only do they look great, but they also give you confidence in your ride’s durability and efficiency.

We use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to ensure the AWZZ wheel is as tough as it looks. Think of FEA as a virtual stress test: we simulate real-world scenarios like hitting potholes or carrying heavy loads on the computer. This helps us spot and fix any potential weak spots before the wheel is made. The result? A wheel that’s not just stylish but also built to handle whatever the road throws at you. So you can drive with confidence, knowing your wheels are designed for strength and reliability.

All our Atomic Wheels forged wheels, including the AWZZ, feature a knurled bead seat. This is a specially textured surface where the tire meets the wheel, designed to prevent tire slippage under hard braking and acceleration. Whether you’re making quick stops or rapid launches, the knurled bead ensures your tires stay firmly in place, providing you with added safety and confidence on every drive.

Additionally, we offer a lightweight hub design featuring strategically placed cutouts to reduce weight without compromising the strength or integrity of the wheel. These precise indentations minimize material while still providing a secure and reliable connection to the vehicle’s hub, further enhancing the overall efficiency of our already light wheels.

Our AWZZ wheels are fully compatible with Tesla’s original lug nuts and TPMS sensors, making installation straightforward. Due to the design of our wheels, the lug nut holes are slightly narrower than those on the OEM wheels. We recommend using a thin-wall socket to install the OEM lug nuts. This ensures a proper fit and helps prevent any scratches to the wheel’s finish. With this simple step, you can easily use your existing hardware and enjoy a perfect fit with your new wheels.

What is the difference between a forged rim and a flow-formed rim? 

The main difference between forged and flow-formed rims lies in their manufacturing processes and materials. Forged rims, made from 6061-T6 aluminum, are formed under extreme pressure and then precisely machined using CNC technology, resulting in ultra-strong, lightweight wheels ideal for high performance. Flow-formed rims, also known as spin-formed, start with a cast mold and are shaped using hydraulic pressure and rotation. This enhances the strength of cast rims while maintaining a more affordable price point, offering a solid balance of performance and cost.

Where do you make the wheels? 

The factory where we manufacture the rims is in China. They are made with state-of-the-art technology, subjected to rigorous safety and quality control processes.

Do you ship outside of the United States? 

Yes, we ship worldwide. However, purchasing a rim in stock can be expensive due to shipping costs. Therefore, we recommend placing a custom order where items are shipped directly from the factory to reduce costs. In this way you will get the same price worldwide, because the rims will be delivered from the factory. 

What Tire Sizes Do You Recommend for Installing Your Rims?

We recommend sticking with OEM sizes for the best performance and fit. However, there is often some room for alternatives based on your specific needs and preferences. We’re happy to help with any questions and guide you in choosing the best tire size for your setup.

What Are Your Cancellation Policies if I Want a Refund on My Pre-Order?

If you’ve made a pre-order payment, you can cancel your order and request a refund at any time before the shipment is processed.

How Long Does It Take to Receive an Order After Making a Purchase?

We ship orders twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays using UPS Ground. Typically, it takes 2-5 business days for wheels to be delivered after shipment.

Can I Pick Up the Rims Directly if I’m Near Your Location?

Yes, you can pick up the rims directly if you’re near our location. Please note that Texas sales tax will be applied to in-state sales.

Are Your Center Caps Compatible with the OEM Ones?

Most of our center caps are 65mm, so they are not compatible with the OEM center caps.
