Hello to all BMW enthusiasts of TeamSpeed!

We are a new sponsor to this forum and thought that it would be good to introduce ourselves. I'm sure some of you have never heard of FORGELINE but obviously, we are a manufacturer of forged alloy wheels. All of our products are manufactured in the U.S and build time generally has a 3-4 week turn around.

The vast majority of our wheel line is offered in a 3-piece configuration which includes flat lip, step lip and competition wheels. We have also just released a monoblock wheel which is ideal for track vehicles. All the wheels from our lineup are designed with strength and rigidity while reducing weight as the highest priority. Utilizing 6061-T6 aluminum; FORGELINE barrels are spun and the centers are created by using a 6,000 ton hydraulic press and is heat treated resulting in a 40% stronger wheel over its cast counterpart. FORGELINE standards exceeds far beyond SAE regulations and is tested with a computerized stress analysis test to solidify the structures integrity. Select wheels also have a optional "Lightweight Hardware Kit" which consists of titanium bolts and lightweight jet nuts to further increase the strength and reduce weight in the most critical point of any wheel - the perimeter. We also know that each personality has a different style which is why our wheels are fully customizable by finish and fitment.

With over 15 years of real world racing experience, we apply this knowledge to every wheel that is designed in our facility. Just ask the guys over at Turner Motorsport that run our wheels on their competition and street vehicles (Turner Motorsport | BMW Performance Parts, OEM BMW Parts & BMW Accessories). I am sure that a lot of you are track junkies like most of us here and any enthusiast should know that strength, weight-reduction and balance is essential when it comes to footwork. Shaving off weight in rotational mass is vital to really take advantage of the power that your vehicle is making. When we say that we have over 15 years of real world racing experience, we mean just that. We have been involved in the American Le Mans Series, Grand Am Rolex Series GT, Grand AM Rolex Sports Car Series, Grand Am Cup KONI Challenge, SCCA World Challenge, NASA, Formula DRIFT, Super Lap Battle and various grassroots motorsport events.
