Made in America
Anyone know which North American aftermarket wheel manufacturers actually manufacture their wheels in North America, start to finish? In an effort to support local economies (or just ultimately prevent China from taking over the world
 ) I always make an effort to buy stuff made in North America, even if it means spending a few more bucks. Looking for flow forged wheels to be specific.

Nobody makes a flow forged wheel in North America. You either go Forged or next best thing is flow forged and made in Japan by HRE or Europe by OZ racing etc.

Vorsteiner forged HRE Forged Forgeline Forged wheels As you can see U.S. wheels to my knowledge are all fully forged wheels. Majority would be made overseas for cast and rotory forged wheels because cost is much less for production thus allowing for the cost to the end user to be less as well. |

You asked specifically for wheels which are flow formed, in which we do carry a FlowForm series that is designed at our facility, but is then manufactured in Japan. To those interested in HRE wheels who are close enough to drive down and check out our manufacturing process, I'd be happy to show you around the facility, just PM me! |
