APR A02 FLOW FORMED WHEELS

APR A02 Flow Formed Wheels pay homage to several classic wheels in a new and unique design that is sure to turn heads! Central to the wheel is a classic 5-spoke pattern that has been hollowed out for weight savings and interlaced inside of a 5-spoke Y pattern that pays respect to the APR A01 wheels. The meshing together of these two iconic designs brings together a snow flake pattern we all love from decades past.

The wheels are flow formed, which means they are strong and light weight, yet cost dramatically less then forged wheels. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was used to reduce spoke width to reduce weight while providing the strength necessary to achieve a 720 KG load rating. Furthermore, weight saving pockets are cut behind the wheel face to reduce weight.

Strong billet aluminum CNC-machined rings allow the wheels to be compatible with both common center bores, and won’t wobble, crack, or crumble like other materials. The center caps are removable and upgradeable and are even compatible with various OEM center caps for a stealth look! The lug bolts are compatible with OEM ball seat lugs, and the barrel has anti-slip machining features to prevent tire-to-wheel rotation.

holy cleaning prob .......no thanks.......
My first thought as well. They are basically the same wheels as mine (fast fc04) with another 5 spoke on top. and mine are really annoying to clean

The price is right but I believe your engineers are capable of more elegant designs. There's a point at which the complexity of the design takes away from it's beauty. I would challenge your designers to keep it to 1lb per inch of diameter. It can be done.

18x9 RPF1s weigh in at 17.9lbs., they meet the same specs, and they're a breeze to clean.

I feel like they couldn't decide on a wheel design, so instead of making two different wheels they just put them together. Looks too busy IMO

hell yeah... I went from VMR 710 to Forgestar CF5 on my GTO because of that. Same reason why I will probably never own my favorite BBS wheels, the LM.
no kidding! talk about an extra 2 hours just to FULLY clean them, cause foam cannon and high pressure won't cut it
