D-FORCE
wheels
Just to be clear - this is not
a wheel manufactured by BMW. BMW and the brand "D-Force" have no
connection. BMW roundel center caps shown in pictures are an
additional purchase, are not pre-installed, and do not in any way imply
any connection or affiiation between BMW and D-Force wheels.
The perfect track or street wheel for fitting wide rubber under your
car. At just over 16lbs. each on 17" and 18 lbs for 18", you'll have a
hard time finding a better performance wheel for the money. E36/E46
3-series offsets, flow-formed for superior strength, and fully tested
for impact and crack resistance.
Only the finest virgin alloys are used to keep the end product
inherently consistent and high quality, and all wheels are built with a
proprietary Flow Forming technology. This manufacturing process results
in some of the lightest race-spec wheels available. Can be
fitted with BMW roundel center caps (not included).
Available for 1992-2008 3-series and M3. See below for details.
NEW! 15" size available for 1982-1992 E30 3-series 4-lug, click here for details.
The LTW-5 wheel in 17" & 18" fitments is finished in
Anthracite, Black with Machined Lip, or Silver. The LTW-5 is designed
for all E-36, E-46 and E-90 3-series and modified cars. We also have
hub-centric spacers available in 5, 10, 15, and 20mm to make them fit
your modified ride perfectly.

The center area of the wheel is first cast in a low
pressure mold, then removed and spun on a CNC machine where it is
pressed, heated, and spun simultaneously, resulting in a semi-forged
finish that forces the aluminum in the barrel area of the wheel to be
thinner yet molecularly more dense, allowing more strength from less
mass. And we all know that less rotating mass is the name of the game
in high performance. |
