Fully forged wheel - 24 inch - Black glossy Mansory for Rolls-Royce Spectre

Fully Forged Wheel 24-Inch Mansory for Rolls-Royce Spectre

The 24-inch fully forged wheel is the headline rim of the Mansory Spectre programme — the largest fitment on the menu, specified by owners who want the body kit to read as one cohesive sculpture from twenty paces. It sits inside the parent Mansory Carbon Fiber Body kit set for Rolls-Royce Spectre as a structural visual anchor: the flared Mansory arches were drawn around this exact diameter, and dropping any smaller leaves a visible gap between tyre shoulder and lip. Forged from a single billet of 6061-T6 aluminium, finished in deep black gloss, and JWL/VIA load-rated to a curb mass exceeding the Spectre's 2,975 kg, this wheel turns the EV super-coupe into a low, planted statement without compromising the silent, magic-carpet drivetrain.

Construction & Materials

Mansory's 24-inch programme is fully forged — not flow-formed, not cast — meaning a heated billet of aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminium is squeezed under several thousand tonnes of press force into a near-net pre-form before five-axis CNC removes everything that is not wheel. The forged grain flow follows the spoke geometry, which gives forged wheels their characteristic stiffness-to-weight ratio at large diameters. After machining, the rim receives a multi-stage finishing protocol culminating in the signature Mansory black glossy lacquer, the depth of which becomes a defining detail at this size.

• Material: forged 6061-T6 aerospace aluminium, single-billet origin, T6 heat-treat for peak yield strength
• Diameter and width: 24 x 9.5J front and 24 x 10.5J rear (staggered fitment matched to Mansory arches)
• Finish: BLACK GLOSSY — multi-coat base, tinted clear lacquer, UV-stable topcoat polished to mirror depth
• Spoke architecture: multi-spoke directional design, side-specific (left/right) for correct vane orientation
• Weight per wheel: approximately 12.4 kg unmounted (front) — significant unsprung-mass discipline at 24" diameter
• Hub interface: hub-centric machining to the Spectre's exact spigot diameter, no centring rings required
• Strength rating: JWL and VIA certified, plus Mansory in-house impact and fatigue test pass
• Optional ceramic coat (factory-applied, oven-cured) to protect the gloss against brake dust etch

Hardware ships matched to the wheel: OEM-specification Rolls-Royce wheel bolts are retained, the central cap is the original silver Pantheon-marque RR cap pressed into a bespoke cap seat machined into the hub face, and the TPMS valve is a metal-stem unit that re-uses the OEM sensor head so the dashboard pressure read-out continues to function without recoding. No spacers are used; offset is engineered into the spoke geometry.

Design & Visual Function

At 24 inches, the wheel becomes the dominant element of the lower body. The multi-spoke face is drawn in a directional pattern — turbine-like vanes that lean into the rotation, casting moving shadows as the car rolls — and the black glossy lacquer collects light differently at every spoke angle. Where the smaller 23-inch sibling reads as factory-comfort restrained, the 24" reads as concept-car aggression. Mansory's body designers cut the front lip, side skirts, and rear diffuser around exactly this rim diameter and tyre wall height; specifying anything smaller leaves an air gap that breaks the silhouette.

Visually, the lower-profile tyre that this fitment requires (sidewall typically 30-series at the rear) flattens the lateral wall of the wheel arch and pulls the eye toward the brake disc and caliper face behind the spokes. The black glossy finish is not a matte black — it is a deep wet-look gloss with measurable colour depth, and the carbon weave of the front bonnet, side skirts, and rear diffuser reads as a tonal complement against this rim colour rather than a contrast. Two-tone coachwork, where specified, frames the wheel-arch line directly above the wheel face, and the 24" diameter ensures the lower break of the two-tone is not lost.

For owners who pair the wheel with the full body programme, the 24" specification interacts with aero parts in a clear functional way: the larger rolling diameter raises the front-axle ride height by a few millimetres relative to the OEM 22" baseline, which the front lip's chin geometry has been designed to compensate for so approach angle and high-speed front-axle stability are preserved. At motorway cruise, the wheel's directional spoke pattern contributes to wheel-well airflow management, and combined with the rear spoiler's downforce trim the EV powertrain sees a small but measurable highway range gain through cleaner aero — a meaningful detail on a battery car.

Compatibility & Fitment

Rolls-Royce Spectre, MY2024 onwards, both LHD and RHD. The wheel is bolted to the Architecture of Luxury aluminium spaceframe via the OEM hub face — no adapters, no stud conversions, no hub modifications. Brake-clearance has been validated against the Spectre's regen-tuned caliper package: the inner spoke clearance leaves room for the OEM disc and caliper, and there is sufficient pad wear allowance over the disc lifetime. Tyre fitment is matched to the staggered widths above and the OEM rolling circumference is preserved within ABS/regen tolerance so one-pedal calibration, traction logic, and the speedometer all remain accurate. The OEM Pantheon-marque centre cap is retained and pressed into a bespoke cap seat machined into the hub. TPMS sensors are reused so dash pressure read-outs continue without coding work.

Installation & Reversibility

Wheel swaps are mechanically simple — one to two hours per axle including torque-down, balance verification, and a TPMS pressure handshake — but the Spectre's mass demands tooling discipline: a calibrated torque wrench (OEM spec), a workshop hoist that supports the 2.97-tonne curb weight, hub-face cleaning to remove corrosion and ensure flush mating, and balance to high-speed (24" diameter is unforgiving of cheap balancing). Mansory recommends a Rolls-Royce-trained workshop or a Mansory partner installer, with a road-test loop after fitting to verify there is no steering weight bias and that ABS, regen, and stability systems read clean. The OEM wheels are not modified during the swap, so the conversion is fully reversible — owners often retain the originals on factory tyres for winter or long-distance touring duty.

Pairing within the Mansory Spectre programme

The 24-inch wheel is the most visible cross-link in the programme. Owners who specify it almost always pair it with the front bonnet so the carbon plane of the bonnet and the gloss-black of the rims share a visual register at the front quarter. The rear spoiler is the second natural pairing: the spoiler's high-speed stability work answers the slightly altered ride height and rolling diameter of the 24" fitment, keeping the rear axle calm at motorway speeds. For comparison shoppers, the smaller 23-inch fully forged wheel sits at the other end of the priority spectrum — same forged construction, polished face, but tuned for factory comfort feel and a softer aesthetic where the 24" goes for maximum visual presence and a flatter sidewall.

Maintenance & Durability

Black glossy lacquer is a finish that rewards care and punishes neglect. Three rules: pH-neutral wheel cleaner only — no alkaline degreasers, no acidic iron-removers left to dwell on a hot rim; soft-bristle brush and rinse before any contact wash, never an abrasive sponge; and ceramic-coat the wheel face during the first detail after delivery, then top up annually. Brake dust on a regen-tuned EV is genuinely lower than on an ICE car of this mass — regen captures most low-speed deceleration energy — but rear-pad dust still etches gloss lacquer if left for weeks, so a fortnightly rinse is sensible. For chip repair, Mansory supplies a colour-matched touch-up kit; deeper damage to the lacquer can be wet-sanded and machine-polished by a wheel-refurbishment specialist without removing the wheel from the car. Inner-barrel inspection annually, hub-face corrosion check at every tyre rotation, and a torque re-check after the first 100 miles of fitment.

Lead Time & Warranty

Lead time is four to eight weeks from order, reflecting the bespoke nature of Mansory forged production — billet allocation, press time, CNC, finishing, and final QA each schedule against the wider Mansory production roster. Wheels are shipped in protective foam moulds with the original Mansory documentation including the JWL/VIA strength-rating certificates, forged-blank traceability, finish-batch reference, and torque specification. The 12-month manufacturer warranty covers material defects (porosity, finishing failure, structural issues) and excludes kerb damage, road-debris impacts, and incorrect torque or installation outside spec.

FAQ

Q: Why pick 24-inch over the 23-inch fitment?
A: Visual presence. The 24" was drawn to fill the Mansory-flared arches completely; the 23" leans toward factory comfort with a taller sidewall. Both are forged 6061-T6 — the choice is silhouette priority versus ride feel.

Q: Does the larger diameter affect the Spectre's regen one-pedal feel?
A: Rolling circumference is matched to OEM within tolerance, so the regen calibration and one-pedal deceleration curve continue to read correctly. ABS and stability systems remain accurate without coding.

Q: How is brake clearance handled at this diameter?
A: The inner spoke geometry was modelled against the Spectre's regen-tuned caliper package and disc, with enough swept clearance for full pad-wear life. No spacers, no caliper modifications.

Q: Is the OEM Pantheon centre cap retained?
A: Yes. The hub face includes a bespoke cap seat machined to receive the original silver RR Pantheon-marque cap so the wheel reads correctly when stationary.

Q: TPMS — does the dashboard still show pressures?
A: Yes. The OEM sensor head is re-housed in a metal-stem TPMS valve included with the wheel set. No recoding is needed; pressure readings continue to display normally.

Q: Can I revert to factory wheels later?
A: Yes. The OEM wheels are not altered during the swap. Many owners retain the original set for long-distance or winter duty and re-fit them seasonally.
