Applications
Trendy design elements can be used to customize wheels quickly and simply to produce an attractive, personalized look. Such applications vary widely in terms of design, and a variety of methods is also used to secure them to the wheel.
Whether bonded, clipped or affixed with one or more screws, or a combination of these techniques – the wheel and the design element selected need to be coordinated with each other. It is also necessary to consider aspects such as mold wear, distortion in the wheel or constant gap dimensions, in addition to the options for series production and fitting.
Precise geometries which cannot be achieved by LPDC are also possible here. Wheels can be ordered in a range of colors with or without applications, which can be fitted at a later date too.
Undercut
Material that is not essential for wheel stability can go – thereby saving weight.
This principle of removing material behind the spokes that is not relevant to strength goes by the name of undercut for wheel manufacturing at the RONAL GROUP. Undercuts are produced either by machining or flowforming and can reduce wheel weight by between 600 g and 1.4 kg depending on dimension and design.
RONAL and SPEELINE CORSE winter wheels are marked with the snowflake icon. These winter-ready, pre-treated and painted alloy wheels are always the right choice even in the cold and wet season. They not only defy the weather, but are also a visual highlight in the snow to boot.
We are now the first manufacturer to transparently label all our rims with our own sustainability label, which gives you precise information about the CO2 footprint of each wheel during production.
CO2 equivalents (CO2eq) are a unit of measurement for standardizing the climate impact of the various greenhouse gases. The calculations are based on the raw casting weight of the largest RONAL wheel currently in the range, as the average wheel-weights vary from plant to plant.
This is made possible by the precise traceability of our CO2 emissions, from product development, material procurement and production through to the recycling of old wheel. Because we not only want to create innovative wheel, but also sustainable ones.
As the RONAL GROUP, our goal is to reduce our CO2 emissions in production by 50% by 2030 and to become completely CO2-neutral by 2050.
Be part of this change and choose wheel that not only look after your vehicle, but also our planet! And with the same OEM quality.
