Wheel Quality Information | Factory Wheel Replacement

All specifications of the reproduction alloy and steel wheels sold at factorywheelreplacement.com are made to factory specs.  Wheel diameter, width, bolt pattern, offset, center bore, etc are factory specs to guarantee an exact fit guaranteed.

Our reproduction wheel manufacturer is quality certified by ISO9001, QS9000, TS16949 and is a one of the leading manufacturers of reproduction aluminum alloy wheels serving the wheel industry today.

Our wheels are strength tested here in America.  Before a wheel design hits the market, it is tested for Radial Fatigue, Cornering Fatigue, 13-degree Lateral Impact, and Paint Performance strength.

Radial Fatigue Testing simulates higher than normal air pressure and weight load on a wheel and tire assembly traveling down the road for an extended period of time.

Cornering Fatigue Testing is designed to simulate a vehicle on an oval track performing cornering maneuvers while under a heavier than normal weight load.

13-degree Lateral Impact Testing designed to simulate a vehicle striking a curb or other road hazard in real world driving conditions.

Paint Performance Testing. Each step in the process is designed to test the hardness of coatings, adhesion to the substrate and coating thickness to a finished sample.  Painted and clearcoated wheels are also Environment Tested to simulate use in salt condition.  Every process is measured on highly specific ASTM standards, which are among the highest in the industry.

The JWL standard (Japan Light Alloy Wheel standard) is a set of requirements for alloy wheels set by the Ministry of Land, Infastructure, Transport, and Tourism of Japan that must be met for all passenger cars in Japan. The JWL mark, cast or forged into the wheel, indicates that the wheel has been self-certified by its manufacturer to meet the standard.  Our reproduction wheels are manufactured to these standards or better.
