New Line of 3 piece forged wheels by Chips Motorsports.

Hello.

Just wanted to announce that Chips Motorsports will be coming out with there own line of forged 3 piece wheels.

They are made to order, many color combinations available, Our 3-pcs wheels can be available for universal sizes 18, 19, 20 and 22, up to 15 wide. If special size is required, we can also customize it upon request.

At the same time wee can custom design any center section the customer may wish, One off wheel can be had.

Pricing is very competitive, i will beat any 3 piece forged advertised price out there.


Just a quick peak at my wheels for my shop car that are in the process of being made CONCAVE .

Do you have any weights for the wheels available (8lbs, 9lbs, 10lbs, etc)?

When I pick a wheel; weight is something I consider. I tend to try and balance looks (color, style, spoke arrangement, etc), price, and weight when I look for wheels.

Just out of curiosity what's the difference between a race wheel and a street wheel? Is it Factor of Safety reductions to achieve a specific weight?

Yes the race only wheels will not tolerate daily driving like potholes etc..

Structurally the race wheels will have less retaining bolts the center spokes will be very thin/ lighter etc...
Thanks
