The BD-23 is a three-piece forged wheel that separates spoke, face, and outer barrel into independent precision-machined components bolted together with aerospace fasteners. This construction unlocks custom lip widths and face depths that are impossible in a monoblock design. Its directional spoke pattern is best described as a controlled rotation — each arm angles forward at the same measured degree, giving the wheel a sense of momentum. Documented on a BMW F30 in the Green Hills of Los Angeles. Built in the United States from aerospace-grade T6061 aluminium, the BD-23 is produced on a build-to-order basis — every wheel machined to your vehicle's exact bolt pattern, centre bore, and offset specification.
The BD-23 is available beyond the standard catalogue. Custom offsets for arch-filling flush fitments, non-standard centre bores, and unusual widths are all achievable as build-to-order options. Staggered setups — wider rear than front — are particularly popular on rear-biased platforms including BMW M-series, Mercedes-Benz AMG, and Corvette. We also offer an AI Wheel Design Service if you want a custom spoke pattern or finish concept designed before production begins.

The BD-23 has been confirmed on a wide range of vehicles. Because every wheel is machined to a custom centre bore and bolt pattern, it can be fitted to virtually any passenger vehicle. Documented fitments include: BMW 3 Series (F30/G20), 4 Series, M3, M4, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, CLA, Audi A4, A5, Volkswagen Golf R, Peugeot 508, Alfa Romeo Giulia.

The forging process compresses aluminium billet under extreme pressure, aligning the internal grain structure along the wheel's stress lines. The result is a wheel that is denser, harder, and more fatigue-resistant than anything produced by pouring molten metal into a mould. In practical terms, this means:
For a daily-driven performance or luxury vehicle, the upgrade from cast to forged is one of the most meaningful modifications available — felt in every corner, every motorway mile, and every braking zone.
If no standard configuration meets your exact requirements, Hodoor offers a custom forged wheel manufacturing service. Define spoke count, face depth, lip width, finish, and offset — all engineered around your vehicle. You can also use our AI Wheel Design Service to visualise your concept before production begins.

Standard options include Gloss Black, Silver, Bronze, custom lip/face combinations available. Contact us for additional custom colour combinations.
Can I order a staggered setup?
Yes. Staggered configurations with a wider rear width than front are available across all diameters. Particularly popular on BMW M-series, Mercedes-Benz AMG, and American muscle platforms.
How long does production take?
Lead times vary by specification and current production volume. Standard finishes typically produce faster than custom colour requests. Contact [email protected] for a current estimate.
Are hub-centric rings included?
Yes. Every order through Hodoor World includes hub-centric rings machined to your vehicle's hub bore diameter, ensuring a vibration-free, zero-play fit at the hub.
Can kerb damage be repaired?
Forged aluminium wheels can generally be repaired by specialist wheel refurbishment services. Minor kerbing, surface scratches, and light buckles are typically addressable. Structural damage to the barrel or spoke roots should be assessed professionally before continued use.
Does this wheel support TPMS sensors?
Yes. The open spoke design accommodates standard strap-in or clip-in OEM TPMS sensors. Please specify TPMS requirements when placing your order so our team can confirm compatibility.
