Cast 1-Piece Wheel Construction:

The Gram Lights 57CR is manufactured using advanced cast 1-piece wheel construction. This process creates a strong, reliable wheel at an accessible price point. While not as light as forged wheels, cast construction provides excellent strength and durability for street and track use.

Ultimate Concave 5-Spoke Design:

The 57CR features an ultimate concave design where the spokes rise from the rim well through to the center section. This creates an aggressive, deep concave face that provides visual depth and three-dimensional appearance. The design maintains rigidity and strength as priority while delivering stunning aesthetics.

Gun Blue 2 Finish:

The Gun Blue 2 finish is a stunning metallic blue-grey color that's unique to Gram Lights. This eye-catching finish provides a sophisticated, premium appearance that complements any build. The Gun Blue 2 color shifts in different lighting conditions, creating depth and visual interest. This finish is more subtle than bright colors but more distinctive than black or silver.

18x9.5 +38 Versatile Fitment:

The 18x9.5 size with +38 offset is a versatile fitment that works on a wide range of vehicles. This spec provides a flush to slightly aggressive stance on most platforms without requiring extensive modifications. The 9.5" width accommodates tire sizes from 245-275mm, providing excellent grip while maintaining good fitment.

Different Face Designs by Width:

The 57CR features different face designs depending on rim width, ensuring optimal spoke design and concave depth for each size. This attention to detail ensures every 57CR wheel looks proportionally correct and maintains the design's integrity across all sizes.

RAYS Original JWL+R Spec1 Testing:

Every 57CR wheel undergoes RAYS original JWL+R Spec1 testing, which exceeds standard JWL testing requirements. This rigorous testing ensures the wheels meet the highest quality and safety standards for performance driving.
