What is flow forming and why is it beneficial?

Flow forming is a manufacturing process that stretches and compresses the wheel's metal. This results in a stronger and lighter wheel compared to traditional casting, which can improve vehicle handling and reduce unsprung weight.

What does the knurled bead do?

The knurled bead is a textured surface on the inner rim of the wheel. It helps to grip the tire bead, preventing it from slipping during hard acceleration or braking, which can be important for performance driving.

What is the offset and bolt pattern of this wheel?

This Konig Heliogram wheel has a 5x108 bolt pattern and a +42 offset. It's important to ensure these specifications match your vehicle's requirements for proper fitment.

Product Details

This is the Konig Heliogram wheel, measuring 18 inches in diameter and 8.5 inches wide, with a 5x108 bolt pattern and a +42 offset. It comes in a Titanium Metallic finish with a knurled bead. This wheel is constructed using a flow forming process, which helps create a strong and lightweight wheel that can handle the demands of daily driving and spirited use.

The flow forming method involves applying pressure to the inner rim of the wheel as it spins at a high speed. This process stretches and compresses the metal, resulting in a grain structure similar to that of forged wheels. This makes the Heliogram wheel more durable and lighter than a traditional cast wheel, improving handling and reducing unsprung weight. The knurled bead is a notable detail that helps prevent tire slippage under hard acceleration or braking, ensuring a more secure fit between the tire and the wheel.

This wheel is a solid option if you're looking to upgrade the look and performance of your vehicle. The Titanium Metallic finish offers a sophisticated appearance that complements a wide range of vehicle colors.
