MV Forged Aero+ Series AR-171 3-Piece Wheel

MV Forged Aero+ Series AR-171 3-Piece Wheel

Emerging as a pioneering force in the carbon hybrid performance arena, the Aero+™ Series introduces an impressive variety of twill carbon, forged carbon, and aluminum aero discs. This series is uniquely characterized by its integration of Grade 5 Titanium hardware, meticulously shaped through advanced milling processes. By harnessing the rotational motion of wheels, the series effectively directs airflow outward through strategically engineered openings, playing a vital role in enhancing brake cooling and boosting downforce, thereby reducing the pressure underneath the vehicle’s chassis. The Aero+™ Series is widely recognized for blending luxury, agility, and innovative design, thereby redefining the standards of luxury automotive performance enhancements.

Engineering

• The impact of wheels on automotive aerodynamics is significant, as they account for nearly one-third of a vehicle’s total aerodynamic drag. This is primarily due to the interaction between the rotating wheels and air currents. In response to this challenge, the Aero+™ series’ design and engineering teams developed the Aero+™ ring to mitigate the aerodynamic effects. The specially designed channels under this ring are tailored to disperse the hot air accumulating around the brakes, particularly after extensive use. This design is instrumental in maintaining optimal brake temperatures and contributes to generating downforce, essential for elevated vehicle performance.

Spoke-Lite™ Undercutting

• Recent enhancements in the Aero+™ Wheel collection include the introduction of the Spoke-Lite™ Register, an innovative addition that cuts wheel weight by 10% while exposing the carbon fiber underneath. The adoption of Scallop Undercutting has led to a marked reduction in both the overall weight and unsprung mass of the wheels. Scalloping the edges of the spokes strengthens the “I-Beam” structure’s cross-section, optimizing strength while maintaining a lightweight design.

Hub Pocketing

• The Aero+™ series is noted for its consistent design, particularly the Through-Hub Pockets located between the lug holes on each wheel. These pockets are crucial for enhancing heat dissipation and reducing the unsprung mass at the wheel hub. The series is offered in five distinctive build configurations, each featuring unique and custom details. Additionally, each wheel set is uniquely identified with a serial number and detailed with specific load ratings and dimensions.

4-Piece Caps

• The Aero+™ Wheels feature a versatile 4-Piece cap system, providing extensive customization possibilities through a selection of accent colors and logo designs, allowing for individualized preferences.
