    What are Variant Corsa wheels?


    The Corsa Collection are fully forged wheels made of 6061-T6 aerospace aluminum. These, like all Variant wheels, are subjected to stringent quality control methods to ensure that only the best product make it onto your car. Semi-custom with complete control over diameter, width, offset, and finish options, right down to hardware color. The Corsa Collection is a great way to get started with multi-piece wheels, but it's also ready to wow those who know what they're doing.To get more news about Alloy Forged Wheels, you can visit nnxwheels.com official website.

    Who is Variant?
    Variant Alloy Wheels aspires to give the highest quality, service, and elegant designs at competitive price points, with over 15 years of aftermarket and custom wheel experience. Their passion for designing the highest quality wheels with an emphasis on accurate fitments has been fuelled by their extensive expertise and experience gained over the years.

    How are Variant wheels made?
    They specialize in the production of both forged and flow formed wheels using cutting-edge cold vertical technology, as well as staggered fitments with a wide choice of wheel widths for the perfect fitment. During the design process, they verify that all of their wheels are TPMS (tire pressure monitoring sensor) compatible and have enough clearance for most high performance brake upgrades on a wide range of high-end, luxury, and exotic automobiles.
    Forged wheels typically use aerospace-grade 6061 - T6 forged Aluminum alloys as raw material which has the best mechanical property for engineers to work with. To manufacture this raw material, a large piece of aluminum cylinder is heated up under controlled high temperature, then put into a hydraulic press and pressed into a much smaller block under 8,000 to 10,000 tons of pressure. The resulting part is commonly called a "forging". These forgings are shipped to manufacturers where wheel designs will be realized using CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) machines. The forgings will go through a series of CNC operations to create the profile, width, offset, and spokes. Then skilled workers carefully hand apply all finishes to create the finished piece.

    The forging manufacturing process eliminates any porosity, shrinkage, and other micro-processes presented in the raw material. The resulting aluminum material has a high degree of uniformity in the grain structure which allows the material to have a very high weight-to-strength ratio. As a result, forged wheels can be much more durable with much less material thus far lighter than cast wheels.

    Since most forged wheels are individually made, there's a wide array of customization options such as diameter, width, offset, PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter/Bolt Pattern), brake clearance, and the finish.You can virtually customize every specification of the wheels to make them fit your car and your likings perfectly. The costs of material, labour, tooling, development, and manufacturing processes make forged wheels very exclusive and come at a very high price point. However, if you only want the best in aftermarket wheels, forged wheels are for you.
