FAQs
What makes flow-formed wheels different from standard cast wheels?
Flow forming strengthens the wheel barrel by improving the grain structure of the aluminum, allowing for reduced weight and increased strength compared to many traditional cast wheel designs.
Will this wheel work with factory TPMS sensors?
Yes. The EC-7 is designed to accept OEM and most aftermarket tire pressure monitoring sensors as well as standard valve stems.
