Q: Is a forged wheel worth it on a Model X versus flow-formed?

Forged construction gives the highest strength and the lowest weight, which matters on a heavy, high-torque vehicle like the Model X. CYBRHEX is forged specifically for EV duty, with load capacity suited to the platform. A flow-formed UP-RW FF wheel and tire package is the more accessible route with its own strengths. Choose forged when you want the strongest, lightest wheel and a design like this one; choose flow-formed to save money.
