One Piece Cast Aluminum Rims for Deuce

A shout out to Fragnaboo

The only way you could make a aluminum wheel strong enough to work on a deuce is by pressure die casting it. A reqular poured wheel would never be strong enough for it to ever last. My father is a retired engineer with General Motors and he designed aluminum wheels for years. I grew up in the foundry business and aluminum wheels are an area that I would steer clear of unless you know exactly what your doing with them. One mistake and your going to kill someone easily.

Fragnaboo Can your pressure cast the wheels I descriobed in a previous post and machine them for $500-$700 each?

How much for safe, strong design specs for a wheel like I described in a previous post?

Thanks
