Cutaway view shows cross section of the uniform hollow. The cored cavity technology, started with the new AVS VS6 five years ago, has evolved with every model, and now stands at the peak. Cored cavity construction, which can be applied only to forged wheels, offers the optimum in both rigidity and light weight, but of course demands high technology. Know-how like high-precision sand mold (core) and metal mold, temperature control, and cooling of molten aluminum are hallmarks of these made-in-Japan wheels. What’s more, the two-piece construction, adopted to allow the sand mold to be withdrawn is integrated between the rim seamlessly and invisibly. This allows for performance equal to or better than one-piece construction. It’s the result of many years of technical innovation.
