Dymag, a world leader in lightweight wheels for the automotive industry, supports many innovative high-performance car makers at this year\u2019s Goodwood Festival of Speed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leading advanced wheel design since 1974, Dymag has an unrivalled heritage and was the first in the world to commercialise carbon hybrid automotive wheels in 2004. Designed for high-performance vehicles, from sports cars to SUVs<\/a> and pickups, the patented carbon hybrid wheel, which combines a carbon outer rim with a forged aluminium or magnesium centrepiece, delivers multiple gains for OEMs, the aftermarket, and customers alike.<\/p>\n

Constantly developing new technology and building on this legacy, it is delighted to supply its carbon hybrid wheel technology to BAC\u2019s Mono R, Gunther Werks\u2019 993 Turbo, Lanzante\u2019s 765 LT, P1 HDK and 930 TAG Championship cars, and Radford\u2019s Pikes Peak Type 62-2, all of which are staring at this year\u2019s Goodwood Festival of Speed. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dymag CEO Tom de Lange<\/strong>\u00a0said<\/strong>:\u00a0\u201cDymag has a long legacy in advanced automotive wheel technology, being the first to commercialise carbon hybrid wheels<\/a> almost 20 years ago. Our latest carbon hybrid wheels significantly benefit all high-end cars, including EVs<\/a>, minimising weight, optimising performance, and boasting aesthetic advantages. BAC, Gunther Werks, Lanzante, and Radford are some of the most innovative thinkers in the automotive industry, and we\u2019re proud to support them with our technology.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

As well as being up to 50% lighter than a traditional forged aluminium wheel, Dymag\u2019s carbon hybrid wheel brings significant gains in reduced unsprung mass and reduced moment of inertia, with less energy required to accelerate and brake. Another dynamic benefit is a reduced gyroscopic force thanks to the lightness of the wheel itself, which means less steering effort is needed, and enhancing steering feedback.<\/p>\n

Strength and durability are also greatly improved over equivalent alloy wheels or complete carbon wheels, a carbon hybrid wheel offering the ability to bend and spring back in the event of an unusually high load or sharp impact – rather than shattering – enhancing safety.<\/p>\n

Dymag\u2019s gains can make a significant difference to the dynamics of a high-performance vehicle, with the benefits even more critical on EV,<\/a> an ever-growing sector of the market, where the step-change in four-corner weight-saving can enhance EV range.\u00a0 Carbon fibre\u2019s unique properties can also reduce Noise Vehicle Harshness (NVH) \u2013 a massive boon for engineers developing an EV<\/a> where the ICE is no longer masking unwanted noises.<\/p>\n

Carbon hybrid wheels also bring aesthetic advantages for OEMs<\/a>; a forged aluminium or magnesium centrepiece offers greater design flexibility than a solid carbon fibre wheel. Dymag\u2019s unique designs are also proven and tested to OEM standards<\/a> off the shelf.<\/p>\n

All of Dymag\u2019s carbon hybrid wheels are manufactured at its state-of-the-art Wiltshire production facility to ensure the quality and consistency of the products. Dymag offers a full range of 18-to-23-inch carbon hybrid wheels, to which it will add new 24-inch and 25-inch examples later this year.<\/p>\n

Critical investment into Dymag comes from strategic partner Hankuk Carbon, a leading manufacturer of advanced carbon materials. Its investment and expertise are accelerating the global mass production of Dymag\u2019s wheel technology, and the company is in advanced stages with multiple global OEMs<\/a> regarding further lightweight wheel supply agreements.<\/p>\n
