TSW Wheels
TSW wheels are born of a rich racing heritage. Founded by a former Formula One racing driver, TSW has been involved in motor racing around the globe for over 30 years. Such involvement has ranged from the 24hours of Le Mans to Touring Cars to Spec Miata.
Many of the wheels are based on racing technology. TSW pioneered the race inspired hex nut look that was featured in designs such as the Revo and Hockenheim R, which have been a popular choice for both grass-roots racing and show cars.

MAK Wheels
Mak was created in 1990, but it is a relatively "old" company as it started as a joint-venture made by two families working in the automotive field since a few decades: the Magri family, one of the leaders in the field of tyre distribution in Italy, and Cervati, a family owning foundries since the '30's, a leader in the casting of aluminium parts.
Thanks to the technological know-how on one side, and to the deep knowledge of the market on the other, the project of production and distribution of light alloy wheels started very rapidly, assessing the position of MAK in a very short time.
The success of Mak wheels was based on a correct strategic planning, keeping into consideration two fundamental advantages: flexibility and styling.

Stage One
- This is a typical wheel, which is showing several problems. The rim is damaged by kerbing, the finish is oxidising and lifting the lacquer, there are stone chips and marks from balance weights.
- This wheel is in need of complete refurbishment.
Stage Two
- The first stage of the process is to remove the existing finish lacquer paint etc to get back to a bare casting. Next we machine out any damage to the rim caused by kerbing etc....
- Lastly, we check for dents or flat spots and deoxidise and clean the wheel ready for painting.
Stage Three
- The wheel is painted using the latest dry powder coat finishing system with the application of a tough durable polyester coating for a lasting finish. Most colours are available.
- This finish is then baked on a high temperature in gas fired ovens.
Stage Four
- The next step is to machine the wheel to restore its original look using hand made templates to exactly follow the contour of the original shape.
- Finally the wheel is lacquered using a clear powder coating.
