AL 13 A100-R AERO-R Forged Wheels

AL 13 A100-R — AERO-R Forged Wheel

The AL 13 A100-R is part of AL 13's AERO-R Series — a collection of forged aluminum wheels combining the classic R Series spoke designs with a dedicated aerodynamic rim profile engineered for high-speed drag reduction and distinctive deep-dish visual presence. The AERO-R designation indicates that the A100-R face design is paired with a deep inner barrel geometry specifically tuned for aerodynamic performance, reducing the drag coefficient across the wheel arch at sustained highway and track speeds. Like all AL 13 designs, the A100-R is manufactured from 6061-T6 aerospace-grade forged aluminum at the Brea, California facility, CNC-machined to a run-out standard of 0.007 inch, and available in 1-piece (monoblock), 2-piece, and 3-piece configurations to suit any build type. No shelf stock is held — every A100-R is built to your exact PCD, offset, width, and finish specification.

Why the AERO-R design? The deep inner barrel of the AERO-R profile works similarly to a closed-face wheel in terms of reducing turbulent airflow behind the spokes, but without adding the unsprung weight penalty of a full disc design. By containing the airflow inside the wheel cavity, the A100-R's aero barrel reduces drag at the wheel arch — a measurable benefit at sustained highway speeds and a significant advantage on track. The forged construction also ensures the barrel geometry remains dimensionally stable under the thermal cycling and cornering loads experienced in high-performance driving.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the AL 13 A100-R?
The A100-R is a forged aluminum wheel from AL 13's AERO-R Series — combining the R Series spoke design with a deep aerodynamic inner barrel, manufactured from 6061-T6 aerospace aluminum in Brea, California. Available in 1-piece, 2-piece, and 3-piece configurations, all built to order.

What is the aero benefit of the A100-R?
The deep AERO-R barrel contains and redirects airflow inside the wheel cavity, reducing turbulent drag at the wheel arch. This is measurable at sustained highway speeds (120 km/h+) and in track environments, without the weight penalty of a full disc wheel.

What cars does the A100-R fit?
Any modern performance or luxury platform — Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren, Audi, Mercedes-AMG, BMW M, Bentley, Rolls-Royce. Every set is manufactured to your specific PCD, offset, and brake clearance.

What sizes are available?
Diameters 13" to 24" and widths 5J to 14.5J. The AERO-R profile provides maximum aero benefit in 20"–24" diameters.

Is the 109RD finish available?
Yes. The 109RD dark-tinted transparent finish is available on the A100-R in the AERO-R configuration, providing a smoked mirror effect over the forged grain. Enquire at [email protected] for availability and pricing.

How long does delivery take?
Lead time is confirmed at order. Worldwide shipping typically adds 3–10 business days after production. Pre-shipping photos are provided before crating.

Wheel Care

• Clean with a pH-neutral wheel cleaner and a soft microfiber or natural-hair brush. Acid and alkaline products etch brushed and polished AL 13 finishes.
• Rinse with cool water before applying any product; avoid spraying onto hot rotors or surfaces.
• Apply a wheel sealant or SiO2 ceramic coating every 3–4 months to guard against brake-dust etching and UV colour fade.
• Torque wheel bolts to manufacturer specification and re-check after the first 50–100 km following any wheel change.
• For 2-piece and 3-piece configurations, inspect barrel bolts annually and re-torque if required.
• Inspect for kerb-impact damage periodically — forged aluminum is highly impact-resistant, but any significant kerb strike should be assessed by a wheel specialist before further high-speed use.
