What Makes the Vossen HF-1 Special?

The Vossen HF-1 Wheel, part of the Vossen Hybrid Forged Series, is inspired and modeled after its forged HC-1 counterpart. Long, sleek, machined-sided spokes point to the integrated hub, ready for any five-loop bolt pattern and offset by the Hybrid Forged Process. Tinted Gloss Black and Tinted Matte Gunmetal are offered as standard finishes, while eight of Vossen Forged solid finishes can be selected for a customized look and feel. 

The process of creating the best flow formed wheel involves a mix of complex engineering and high-grade technology. A balanced combination of heat and pressure upon the rim barrel alters the mechanical properties of the wheel to get the desired effect: increased strength and weight reduction of up to 15 percent.

The Vossen Hybrid Forged HF-1 is available in three different concave profiles. Flat, Deep and Super Deep profiles allow for extremely aggressive fitments for a wide range of makes and models. It is available in 19, 20, 21, and 22-inch diameters.

• Offer high level of dependability and provide long-lasting service
• Elaborately engineered to excite you and mesmerize all passers-by
• Lifetime Warranty on Wheel Structure

Vossen’s Hybrid Forging Process

The flow forming process maintains the integrity of the design, while also improving the grain-structure of the aluminum, creating a stronger, lighter, and considerably thinner forged-like rim barrel. Flow forming is the response to our market’s demand for lightweight wheels that are more durable and enhance the overall vehicle driving experience.There are four steps to this process, first the heat and coating is applied to the flow-forming drum. The cast wheel is mounted on the drum and ready to be formed.

Second, pressure is applied to the rim barrel. Specially designated hydraulic rollers are used to stretch the wheel by applying pressure to the rim barrel. Next, the wheels’ properties are compressed and stretched to achieve the desired width.

Finally stretching results in an improved grain-structure of the aluminum, which makes for a stronger, thinner, and lighter forged-like rim barrel. The final product is more durable on impact and enhances overall vehicle performance.

Why Should I Install Aftermarket Wheels?

• Aftermarket wheels have been engineered to be lightweight, which is why these see the primary use in motorsports
• A lighter wheel reduces un-sprung weight, resulting in faster acceleration and significantly improved handling
• A bigger wheel allows space for much larger brake rotors and calipers—usually a must when a car is built to race
• A larger wheel is more attractive in design compared to boring stock wheels

Advancing the traditional casting process, the Hybrid Forged Series utilizes flow forming to cut down on weight and increase strength. Flow forming also allows for a great range of wheel widths within each design.
