We've invested quite a bit of time and thought into our manufacturing process. We just added a vibrating polishing system. This can polish up to a 24" wheel. This can also polish the center section and the great advantage is that it will polish the entire piece, front, back sides, lug pockets, etc.

Formula 43 is one of the very few wheel companies to manufacture it's modular rim halves in house. This is a very unique process of metal forming, that takes years to master the programming. Our equipment, has the ability the record and playback any live changes you made during the CNC process. If you like the changes you made than this is your new program and the machine will repeat the process over and over again.

Just ask Stielow, he's been to our shop many times and it's an amazing process to see live!
I really like working with these guys. They are very nice and knowable. I like to swing by the shop and watch them make the wheels. I went down when they were making my centers. I'm mesmerized by shinny objects and big machining centers cranking out parts.
