Split-spoke architecture
Two branches per spoke root distribute cornering load across a wider base. Less stress concentration at the hub. More predictable behaviour under repeated heat cycles.
The track-day CSF. Split-spoke architecture with deep barrel clearance, aggressive concavity and a load path designed around cornering and braking. Built for drivers who measure wheels by lap time - stiffer under lateral load, cleaner around big brakes, and specified to the car before machining.

CSF-R is shaped around the four things that matter on a circuit: brake clearance, stiffness under lateral load, heat management and tyre support. The split-spoke layout opens up the brake package. The barrel profile leaves room for big calipers. The hub-to-rim load path is direct.
Two branches per spoke root distribute cornering load across a wider base. Less stress concentration at the hub. More predictable behaviour under repeated heat cycles.
The spoke profile and barrel are shaped around the brake envelope, not corrected with spacers after the fact. Large rotors and multi-piston calipers fit because the wheel is designed around them.
Where width and offset allow, CSF-R carries a deeper face profile than the standard CSF line. Concavity is balanced against caliper clearance and structural reserve.
Most wheel design starts with radial load: the car weight pushing down. CSF-R starts with lateral load, the force that tries to pull the tyre and wheel sideways mid-corner.
Under hard cornering, the outer wheels see vehicle mass, lateral force and brake torque at the same time. CSF-R answers with split-spoke roots, a wider load base and a barrel profile that leaves room for heat-soaked brakes.
A spoke that is strong enough in pure radial load can still feel vague when cornering and braking overlap. The CSF-R load path is built for the overlap.
CSF-R suits builds where the wheel needs to look purposeful before the car even moves. The design works well on cars with larger brakes, wider tires, and a more committed stance, while still keeping the forged weight advantage that makes the car feel sharper. The current table spans roughly 4.8 to 11.6 kg depending on size, so smaller fitments favor response while larger fitments add stance and load reserve.
Each wheel is cut from forged 6061-T6 aluminium and finished to suit the build. Width, offset, bolt pattern, center bore, concavity, and color are selected after the car and tire setup are known.
Good match for M cars, AMG sedans, RS models, GR Yaris, Civic Type R, WRX, and other cars where brake room and an aggressive track look matter as much as weight.
These product views show the CSF-R spoke shape, brake-window layout and concavity direction. Final width, offset, center bore, load rating, finish and concavity are confirmed around your car before production.
CSF-R is shaped for customers who want a performance forged wheel with enough brake clearance and spoke structure for real road or track use.
This race-focused split-spoke wheel is ordered around the car's tire width, brake package, ride height, offset target, and finish direction.



Approximate weight excludes center cap and valve. Final weight changes with width, offset, bolt pattern, brake clearance, load rating, and machining depth.

These optional forged wheel details are confirmed during fitment planning for CSF-R builds where face depth, tire slip resistance, or structural reinforcement needs to be considered.
LFI concave profiles are built around the relationship between wheel width, offset, diameter, brake clearance, and forging depth. The goal is simple: push the face as deep as the car allows, without compromising fitment, caliper clearance, or structural integrity.
The Maximum Concave Face option is available for selected LFI Performance Series, Supreme Concave Series, and Project Speciale forged wheel designs. Depending on wheel width and offset, the face profile can be tuned from mild concave to a much deeper spoke drop.
Wider wheels and lower offsets generally allow stronger concavity. In aggressive applications, fitments can extend to very low offsets where the vehicle body, suspension, and brake package allow it.
Concavity is not selected by diameter alone. The final face depth is calculated from the full fitment package: rim width, offset, brake clearance, vehicle platform, and the chosen forged wheel design.



Some high-offset vehicles do not naturally allow a deep spoke profile because the wheel face must sit further outward to clear the hub and brake package. For these applications, LFI can offer a specialized heavy-duty blank option that creates a more pronounced concave look while keeping the fitment usable.
This is especially useful for cars where the customer wants a stronger visual stance but still needs proper inner clearance, brake clearance, and road-use reliability.
Deep concavity must be balanced against caliper clearance, suspension clearance, fender position, tire width, and the actual offset range the vehicle can accept. The most aggressive face is not always the best face for every car.
LFI will always prioritize a correct forged-wheel fitment over forcing a face profile that creates clearance problems.
The deep concave forging concept shown below demonstrates how a pronounced face profile can be achieved even on a relatively high-offset fitment, using a 19x8.5J ET42 reference example.

Knurled bead seats can help reduce tire movement on higher-grip applications, including track use, hard braking, drag launches, and sticky tire setups.
Reinforcement ribs can add barrel rigidity where the final specification, road conditions, tire package, or vehicle load calls for extra reserve.

CSF-R fits where track performance, brake clearance and stiffness under lateral load are the priority. Porsche 911. BMW M3/M4. Cayman GT4. GR Supra. Civic Type R.
Large Porsche brake packages need spoke profile and barrel clearance planned together. CSF-R was shaped around exactly this.
Heavy, powerful, brake-intensive. CSF-R's split-spoke root width handles the cornering loads these cars generate.
Light, stiff, track-prepped. CSF-R adds brake clearance and concavity without pushing into the ultralight Superleggera territory of REX-0R.
CSF-R follows the same engineering review process as every LFI custom forged wheel. Each set is reviewed against the vehicle load target, brake package and intended use before production. CSF1 reference testing validates the broader design family; custom CSF-R specifications inherit that engineering approach.
