Enkei Truck/SUV Wheels - Enkei Truck and SUV Wheels

Enkei Truck Wheels

Enkei always stays with the times. Thirty years ago, it was all about sports cars and they made the most prolific sports wheels in the market. These days, it’s all about trucks and SUVs. So they dedicated a full line of SUV wheels. Using all they’ve learned about what it takes to make a rigid racing wheel, they’ve set out to raise the bar on truck and SUV wheels.

Their truck wheels’ line grows from the Matrix, ONX, Blackhawk, RPT1, and the recently revealed Cyclone. All these wheels have undergone Enkei’s Durville Casting process for making high strength wheels. 

RPT1

Truck and SUV owners have often asked for Enkei to develop an RPF1 for them, and they listened.  The all-new Enkei RPT1 features the same clean split-spoke design as the RPF1 but is built to higher loading capacities to suit 6-lug trucks and SUVs.  

Cyclone

A follow-up to the groundbreaking RPT1, the Cyclone is sure to take the truck world by storm. The Cyclone utilizes Enkei’s innovative MAT technology to build a wheel that is both lightweight and strong. With an ultra-clean design and super concave spokes, the Cyclone is exactly what a truck wheel should be: tough, durable, and easy to clean. When performance and utility take precedence over bling.

Matrix

The Matrix features a classic mesh design with a subtle lip.  17” versions are available in exclusive new brushed gold and brushed black finishes. 

Why Should I Invest in Off-road Wheels?

  • Off road wheels are more durable than regular street wheels
  • You will get wheels that are not only strong but lightweight as well
  • Off-road wheels are made of corrosion resistant alloys to help them stay good looking even after hours in the mud
  • Off road wheels come in larger sizes to accommodate the extra clearance provided by the lift
  • Lifted vehicles have a higher center of gravity and off road wheels can provide stability to keep you safely on the road

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 Draco’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.

Spec-E Inspected

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.

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
