Custom 22x12 Compression Forged Wheels Quotes & Engineering Service

A 22x12 wheel features an extremely wide barrel and a deep negative offset (-44mm or -51mm), which places extreme bending leverage on the center spoke hub. Traditional low-pressure casting relies on molten metal cooling inside a stationary mold, which often results in micro-porosity and random crystalline structures vulnerable to shear failure. In contrast, our compression rotary forging process applies thousands of tons of dynamic pressure to dense, heated alloy blanks. This aligns the aluminum grain boundaries continuously along the contour of the spokes and rim barrel, yielding up to 40% higher tensile strength and preventing spoke cracking under severe lateral impact.

Every wheel design produced at our JWL-verified Kipardo manufacturing facility is subjected to rigorous destructive validation testing. This includes: (1) Dynamic Radial Fatigue Testing up to 500,000 cycles to evaluate rim endurance; (2) Dynamic Cornering Fatigue Testing simulating sustained aggressive cornering loads; (3) 13-Degree and 30-Degree Impact Tests dropping heavy strikers onto the rim flange to verify ductile deformation without pressure loss; and (4) Neutral Salt Spray (NSS) corrosion testing exceeding 1,000 hours to ensure finish integrity in harsh coastal and winter-road conditions. Testing aligns fully with JWL/VIA (Japan), SAE J2530 (North America), and ISO 3006 protocols.

Yes. Shanghai Rimax Industry Co., Ltd. specializes in tailored OEM and ODM contract manufacturing. We can configure bolt patterns including 5-lug, 6-lug, and heavy-duty 8-lug fitments (such as 8x170, 8x165.1/8x6.5, 8x180), match custom hub-centric bores to eliminate centering rings, and calibrate offsets between -44mm and -51mm for desired aggressive stances. Furthermore, we support private-label brand packaging, custom-embossed or CNC-engraved center caps, laser-etched rim lip branding, and customized barcodes for automated warehouse intake.

Every Kipardo and Rimax wheel is backed by an industry-leading 5-year / 100,000 km structural warranty covering cracking, weld integrity, and structural failure under designated load limits, alongside a comprehensive 2-year warranty on all painted, machined, and PVD surface finishes against peeling, flaking, or premature corrosion.

For existing blank profiles, our MOQ begins at just 40 pieces (10 vehicle sets) per specification, with production completion within 15 to 25 business days. For brand-new bespoke designs requiring custom engineering FEA modeling and rapid prototyping tooling, initial sample wheels can be manufactured and inspected via CMM within 30 days, followed by full container volume production within 45 days.

Given the extreme outer lip depth of 22x12 rims, standard packaging is insufficient. We apply an elastic protective plastic ring around the outer rim flange, encapsulate the face in a non-woven soft bonnet, seal the entire wheel in a heavy-gauge humidity-proof polyethylene bag, and seat it inside a heavy-duty double-corrugated 5-layer export master carton with drop-shock corner buffers. Cartons are loaded onto fumigated solid pallets, reinforced with edge-protector boards, and securely stretch-wrapped for maritime container safety.
