Advanced Manufacturing Technology:

The Phoenix wheel is manufactured using Enkei's proprietary MAT (Most Advanced Technology) process, which combines one-piece cast wheel construction with a spinning process to improve material properties and overall wheel strength. The Rim-Rolled technology shapes the rim to enhance material elongation without sacrificing hardness, resulting in a lightweight yet exceptionally durable wheel.

Spec-E Testing:

Every Enkei Phoenix wheel undergoes rigorous Spec-E inspection, Enkei's own testing standard that exceeds JWL requirements. The Spec-E protocol requires a higher drop point in impact testing and 20% more cycles for rotary bending fatigue and dynamic radial fatigue tests compared to standard JWL specifications.

Design Features:

The split five-spoke design features spokes that branch off from the pentagonal center at an aggressive angle and flare outward to the outer flange, creating a bold, performance-oriented aesthetic. The exposed lug design complements the gloss black finish for a cohesive, modern appearance.

Price shown is per wheel. Enkei has been a worldwide leader in alloy wheel manufacturing since 1950, producing over 10 million wheels annually and serving as an official supplier to Formula 1 teams.
