Image shown is based on 22"X11J ET5 with MAXIMUM CONCAVE FACE
Size Range: 19”, 20”, 21″, 22"
Width Range: 8J~13J
Offset Range: -44~+70(Range varies with width)
*Pictured wheel shown is not representative of all size configurations. Center profile and lip depth will change in relation to vehicle specific fitment.
Enhanced Concavity
The MAXIXUM CONCAVE FACE is a distinctive feature of the Performance Series, Supreme Concave Series, and Project Speciale. These rims are available in diameters ranging from 19 to 22 inches and provide three levels of concavity. The width of the rim dictates the lowest offset it can accommodate, up to negative 44. The exact concavity is determined by the interaction between width, offset, and size.
For high offset applications, LFI offers a specialized heavy-duty blank option with a pronounced concave design. Ensure vehicle and brake kit clearance is considered before ordering. The DEEP CONCAVE forging concept is showcased with a 19*8.5J ET42 fitment. This particular feature is available as a cost option and comes in sizes from 19 to 22 inches.
Anti-Slip Knurled Beads
Anti-slip knurled beads are small, machined grooves on the inner lip of forged wheels designed to enhance grip between the wheel and tire. This feature prevents tire slippage under high-performance conditions, such as track racing or off-roading, where intense forces can cause the tire to shift on the rim.
- Prevents Tire Slippage: Ensures the tire stays in place, enhancing stability.
- Improved Safety: Maintains tire alignment for better control.
- Enhanced Performance: Offers more predictable handling and consistent grip.
- Reduced Tire Wear: Prevents uneven wear from slipping, extending tire life.
- Smoother Ride: Maintains wheel balance, reducing vibrations.
Knurled beads are ideal for applications requiring strong tire grip, especially in high-G-force situations like racing or aggressive driving.

Annular Reinforcement Ribs
Reinforcement ribs are structural ridges added to the inner or outer surfaces of forged wheels to increase strength without significantly adding weight. These ribs are strategically placed to enhance the wheel’s rigidity and durability under stress.
- Increased Strength: The ribs distribute stress across the wheel, improving its load-bearing capacity and reducing the risk of cracks or deformation under heavy loads.
- Enhanced Rigidity: Reinforcement ribs help maintain wheel shape, which is critical for high-performance driving, where wheel flex can reduce handling precision.
- Improved Heat Dissipation: The added surface area from the ribs aids in cooling, helping the wheel manage the high heat generated during intense driving or braking.
Reinforcement ribs add both strength and durability to forged wheels, making them ideal for demanding conditions like racing, off-roading, and spirited driving.
