The Flow Forming Process
The process begins by securely fastening the wheel-shaped mold onto the rotating flow forming machine, followed by a meticulous heating process. Hydraulic rollers are then utilized to apply carefully controlled pressure on the barrel, facilitating the gradual expansion of the wheel. Precise stretching and compressing techniques are employed to meticulously manipulate and adjust the material, achieving the desired width with precision. By extending the barrel material, the grain formation of aluminum is enhanced, resulting in a final composition that remarkably resembles a wheel produced in a factory. This advanced process not only reduces weight but also reinforces the construction, yielding a wheel that is lighter and stronger in nature.
About Vossen Wheels
Their Factory
Vossen has taken the lead in the advancement of forged wheels, proudly establishing itself as one of the few companies capable of constructing these components entirely in-house. Situated in the vibrant city of Miami, Florida, their state-of-the-art facility houses a range of cutting-edge machinery. After three years of extensive research, the facility has received TUV Verification, validating its high standards and exceptional capabilities.
Design
The Vossen Forged Precision Series sets itself apart from competitors by eschewing conventional and simplistic machining techniques that prioritize output optimization. Instead, Vossen Forged Precision Series upholds its commitment to preserving exclusive and intricate details, refusing to compromise them in favor of enhanced manufacturability.
Engineering
Achieving exceptionally precise installations involves gathering measurements from over a hundred distinct points on the vehicle. These measurements are then incorporated into computer-assisted design models, which undergo thorough assessment using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). This meticulous process ensures adherence to SAE and TUV standards while preserving the optimal contour of the components.
The Cybertruck Wheels website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate.

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only.
