AL13 Wheels: Luxurious American Forged Excellence at TAG Motorsports

AL13 Wheels — Proudly Forged in California

Founded in 2012 in Los Angeles, AL13 Wheels has quickly emerged as a leading name in luxury and performance wheels. What sets AL13 apart is their in-house manufacturing facility in Brea, California, where they design, engineer, and finish every wheel from start to shine.

Their tagline—“Your New Favorite Wheel Brand.™”—reflects the attention to detail, advanced machining techniques, and bespoke finishes that define the brand.

Precision Engineering & In-House Manufacturing

At the heart of AL13’s promise lies meticulous craftsmanship and rigorous quality control:

• Every wheel begins as a 6061-T6 aerospace-grade forgery, delivering unmatched strength and structural integrity without welding or porosity.

• Each design undergoes Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to optimize for durability, weight reduction, and performance.

• The wheels are sculpted via lathe turning, removing up to 70% of material to create dramatic concave profiles, then finished through advanced CNC milling and precision hand polishing.

• AL13's strict runout standards—0.007", far below the industry average of 0.030"—ensure smooth, vibration-free performance even at high speeds.

• Finishing options include brush or high-luster ceramic polish with transparent powder coats sourced from Brisbane, Tokyo, and Hamburg for exceptional visual fidelity.

AL13 Collections & Customization

AL13’s portfolio blends design innovation with functional elegance:

• Design Technik Series (DT) — Exemplified by models like the DT009, crafted for deep concave, multipiece construction, and customizable aesthetics. One standout build used DT009 5050 wheels on a Porsche Panamera Turbo S Sport E-Hybrid, featuring carbon fiber caps and acid green hardware—a visually striking, performance-oriented configuration.

• R‑Series AERO — Three-piece wheels blending performance-driven design with custom width and finish options.

• LUX‑Series — High-end three-piece wheels for luxury and SUV applications.

• Wide-ranging sizes and vehicle fitments from 18″ to 24″, optimizing both exotic and sports car applications.

Enthusiasts and automotive builders have praised AL13’s roots in crafting many popular designs for brands like Brixton, HRE, and Vossen before launching under their own label.
