Litespeed Racing VR5 Forged Magnesium Wheel

Stylish And Modern Monoblock Racing Wheel

The Litespeed Racing VR5 Forged Magnesium wheel is a lightweight and modern interpretation of the classic star-pattern wheel found on many Italian supercars. Countless hours of FEA computer simulations where put into fine tuning every aspect of the Litespeed VR5's geometry with a focus on strength, weight reduction, and modern flair. The Litespeed VR5 is a strikingly modern wheel with intricate sculpting and pocketing for both weight reduction and visual appeal.

Litespeed Racing wheels are competition-proven on tracks across the world, from road courses to autocross to quarter-mile and half-mile top speed races.

Fully Forged From Magnesium Alloy

In a quest to build the lightest wheel possible, Litespeed actually started with the obvious solution: carbon fiber. It's a seemingly magical material, with super-high tensile strength and super-low density. But the resulting wheel was not as light as expected, mainly because a lot of carbon needs to be added to make it safe enough to withstand impacts. Also, carbon fiber can't be formed into strong complex shapes like I-beams.

Forged magnesium is the solution to these problems. Modern forged magnesium alloys are light years ahead of the old school “mag” wheels made from cast magnesium. Litespeed Racing’s proprietary forged magnesium alloy actually outperforms forged aluminum in both tensile strength and fatigue strength, while being a naturally lighter material. The result is forged magnesium monoblock wheels that, in many cases, are actually lighter than some OEM full carbon fiber wheels of the same size.

Every Litespeed Racing wheel is custom made to fit your specifications for size, offset, color, finish, brake clearance and load rating. Once you've made your purchase, give us a call at (844) 438-7244 to select the specs, color and finish that suit your application!
