The AL 13 DS001 is a custom forged 3-piece wheel from AL 13's DS premium series, produced in Brea, California. Three individually engineered components — a forged aluminium disc, a spun outer barrel, and a spun inner barrel — are assembled to the customer's precise offset and width specification using aviation-grade hardware.
The DS designation places the DS001 in AL 13's premium 3-piece lineup, combining the engineering advantages of the 3-piece format — maximum offset range and full serviceability — with a design language developed for the highest-tier custom builds. Every DS001 is made to order; no standard configurations are held in stock.
The AL 13 DS001 is built to order across a diameter range of 13 inches to 24 inches, with widths from 5J to 14.5J. Because no dimensions are held in stock, every specification — diameter, width, offset, centre bore, bolt pattern — is machined precisely to the customer's requirements.
Diameter range: 13", 14", 15", 16", 17", 18", 19", 20", 21", 22", 23", 24". Extended diameters above 24" may be available as a special order — contact [email protected] to enquire.
Width range: 5J – 14.5J. Custom widths outside this range on request. Offset is fully bespoke — specify your required ET and AL 13 will machine accordingly.
All AL 13 DS001 wheels are produced at the Brea, California facility. AL 13 controls every stage in-house: forging, CNC machining, finishing, and quality control. No production is outsourced.
The 3-piece assembly uses a fully forged and CNC-machined T6061 aluminium centre disc joined to independently spun outer and inner 6061-T6 aluminium barrels. Machine-threaded aviation-grade fasteners secure the assembly at both flange interfaces. Each barrel depth can be specified independently, enabling precise control of both total width and offset distribution across the inner and outer sections.
The assembled wheel is pressure-tested for airtight barrel sealing before leaving Brea. Because the three components are bolted rather than welded, the wheel is fully serviceable — any individual component can be replaced, refinished, or reconfigured for a different vehicle without replacing the entire wheel. For collectors and long-term enthusiasts this serviceability is a meaningful value proposition over the lifetime of the wheel.
AL 13 performs all finishing in-house at Brea, enabling a broader range of colours and surface treatments than brands that outsource their paint and polish work. Available finish families:
Standard powder coat: 6–10 week lead time. Polished, chrome, or custom paint: 10–14 weeks. Contact [email protected] with your finish requirements for pricing and lead time.
The AL 13 DS001 can be configured for virtually any vehicle platform thanks to full custom offset, width, centre bore, and bolt pattern options on every order. Common platforms include:
For fitment confirmation on your specific vehicle, contact [email protected] with year, make, model, and intended tyre size.
AL 13 manufactures the DS001 to any bolt pattern. Common configurations ordered through Hodoor World:
Non-standard patterns (5×98, 5×115, 5×127, 6×114.3 and others) available on request. Enquire at [email protected].
AL 13 builds four construction types from the same Brea facility using the same T6061 aluminium. Construction choice reflects priorities:
| Series | Construction | Width Range | Key Characteristic |
|---|---|---|---|
| DM (Monoblock) | Single billet CNC | 5J – 14.5J | Lightest, most rigid, no joints |
| DB (2-Piece) | Forged face + spun barrel | 5J – 14.5J | Wide offset range, deep dish achievable |
| DT (3-Piece) | Forged disc + outer + inner barrel | 5J – 14.5J | Maximum offset range, fully rebuildable |
| DS (3-Piece Premium) | Forged disc + outer + inner barrel | 5J – 14.5J | Premium design, full 3-piece flexibility |
DM for weight and rigidity. DB for wide offset range with clean aesthetics. DT or DS for maximum fitment flexibility and the ability to service individual components over the life of the wheel.

Ordering an AL 13 DS001 through Hodoor World:
Q: Is the AL 13 DS001 available from stock?
A: No — every DS001 is built to order. AL 13 holds no standard-size inventory. Each wheel is machined to the customer's exact specification, which is why a 6–14 week lead time applies.
Q: What is the production lead time?
A: 6–10 weeks for standard powder coat finishes; 10–14 weeks for polished, chrome, or custom painted finishes. Current lead times vary with production volume — we confirm at time of enquiry.
Q: Can I order larger than 24 inches?
A: AL 13's standard range is 13"–24". Larger diameters may be possible as a special project — contact [email protected] to discuss.
Q: What construction does the AL 13 DS001 use?
A: The DS001 is a 3-piece bolted wheel from AL 13's DS premium series. A forged T6061 aluminium disc is assembled with separate outer and inner spun aluminium barrels using aviation-grade hardware. The three-piece format delivers the widest offset and width range in the AL 13 catalogue and the wheel is fully serviceable — individual components can be replaced or refinished without replacing the entire wheel.
Q: Does Hodoor World ship internationally?
A: Yes — UK, EU, UAE, Australia, Japan, Hong Kong, USA, and all major markets. Import duties are the buyer's responsibility. Shipping costs are quoted with each order.
Q: What warranty covers these wheels?
