Weld Weldstar 17x10 / 5x4.5 5x114.3 BP / 7.2in BS Black Polished Wheel - Non-Beadlock

If you're building a performance vehicle where every ounce matters, a strong, lightweight wheel is crucial. This Weldstar wheel from Weld is a forged aluminum option designed for serious builds. It measures 17 inches in diameter and 10 inches wide, offering a substantial platform for a performance tire.

Forged wheels like this Weldstar are made by forcing aluminum into a die under extreme pressure. This process creates a denser, stronger, and lighter wheel compared to cast wheels. The result is a wheel that can handle the stresses of aggressive driving while reducing unsprung weight, which can improve handling and acceleration. This particular wheel features a black polished finish, giving it a sharp look that stands out. It has a 5x4.5 inch (5x114.3mm) bolt pattern and a 7.2-inch backspacing, which will affect how the wheel sits on your vehicle's hub and how much clearance you have for suspension and brake components.

This is a non-beadlock wheel, meaning it's designed for standard tire mounting without the extra clamping mechanism found on beadlock wheels. This makes it a more straightforward choice for many street and track applications. When installing, always ensure you use the correct lug nuts for your vehicle's stud size and thread pitch to guarantee a secure fit. Proper torque is essential for safety and wheel longevity.
