UP FORGED UP-03

UP FORGED UP-03

Designed with the same uncompromising mentality that defines the world's most revered supercars, and proven against the clock at Pikes Peak, the UP FORGED UP-03 brings flagship engineering to your Tesla Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y. Hot-forged as a single monoblock from 6061-T6 aluminum, the UP-03 handles the instant torque of a Tesla as confidently as it carves a canyon road, delivering faster acceleration, sharper response, extended range, and the long-term integrity expected of a true performance benchmark.

Design Story & Heritage

The UP-03 was not designed in a studio. It was forged on a mountain. When our race program needed a wheel capable of surviving the 12.42-mile, 156-turn assault of Pikes Peak, climbing to a 14,115-foot summit where thin air, savage braking zones, and instant Tesla torque punish anything less than purpose-built hardware, nothing on the market met the brief. So our engineering team in Hawthorne, California designed one from a blank sheet. Every spoke, barrel, and contour was shaped using finite element analysis, producing an I-beam spoke geometry tuned for maximum rigidity under extreme cornering loads, with a knurled inner barrel that locks the tire to the wheel under hard acceleration and braking.

In June of 2023, that wheel proved its pedigree in unmistakable terms. With legendary professional driver Randy Pobst behind the wheel of Dark Helmet, our Pikes Peak race car, the UP-03 carried a 5,000-pound production-based sedan to a staggering 9:54.901 at Pikes Peak. It was the first sub-10-minute run in our program’s history, a top-10 overall finish against 66 purpose-built open-wheel and tube-frame competitors, and a new Modified Production EV record. That same wheel has since gone on to set benchmark lap times at Laguna Seca, Buttonwillow, and Willow Springs under our Tesla Race program. Bolt on a UP-03 and you inherit a racing pedigree written into every spoke.

Product Details & Features
Brake-Ready Clearance
Purpose built spoke geometry and a raised barrel profile deliver generous clearance for oversized calipers and multi piece brake kits, including our 15.5 inch carbon ceramic setups, without compromising spoke strength or fitment.
Reinforced Inner Bead
A reprofiled inner bead and thickened rim flange dramatically increase impact resistance and tire retention under aggressive cornering loads, protecting both wheel and tire while keeping rotating mass low for sharper handling response.
High-Pressure Metalworking
Hot forging under extreme compression refines the 6061-T6 grain structure and eliminates internal voids, producing exceptional fatigue strength, superior impact resistance, and consistent dimensional accuracy.
