What Makes Enkei’s YS5 Special?

The YS5 is a new addition to Enkei 's classic Split-5 design. We've tried to keep the spokes and the wheel hub lines as simple and clean as possible. The spokes are as close as possible to perfectly perpendicular to the outer lip. The lines that make the transition from a spoke to a hub area are equally aggressive. There is a vertical drop to the hub area from this transition. All these design cues create a wheel that looks great on virtually any car.

Enkei has sold trendy and sporting wheels from day one, which are still tough enough to deal with high-speed driving rigors. But not everyone that does not want to go racing or drive fast means they don’t want their car to look cool. Which is why they produce the Performance Line of high quality cast wheels. With the all-new Enkei YS5, they brought this philosophy to heart. This new and powerful split 5-spoke wheel is perfect for compact sedans or even CUVs.

The Durville Process

In the Durville process, molten aluminum alloy is poured into the mold from its inner rim side, with the disc side facing downward. The alloy is rapidly quenched and solidifies, starting at the disc side, creating a finer metallic structure, significantly enhancing tensile strength, yield strength and elongation.

To maintain high stiffness under great force, the YS5's cross sectional area in the direction against the force applied needs to be enlarged. Unfortunately, the larger this area is, the heavier the wheel will get.  However, if the layout, cross sectional shape of the spokes and the rim profile are designed properly, the wheel can maintain high stiffness without adding weight.

Enkei’s processing techniques ensure the strength of its wheels, and its excellent design capability ensures stiffness and lightness. Enkei’s design capability is the most-treasured asset and essential for developing the highest performance wheels.

Why Should I Install Aftermarket Wheels?

• Aftermarket wheel has 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

Spec-E Inspection

Speaking of strength, Enkei, long ago, established their own test standard called “Spec-E.” It is tougher than the already lofty JWL requirement. Enkei’s Spec-E test setting requires a higher drop point in the impact test and 20% more cycles for the rotary bending fatigue and dynamic radial fatigue tests than JWL standards.

Enkei is a household name in the world of motorsports. The experience they gained in motorsports in producing lightweight and strong wheels like the YS5. And because of that, each wheel in Enkei’s lineup can be used for racing since every wheel passed the stringent JGTC standards.
