AL 13 D005-109R AERO-109R Forged Wheels
AL 13 D005-109R — AERO-109R Forged Wheel
The AL 13 D005-109R combines the foundational D005 D Series spoke design with AL 13's AERO-109R deep barrel profile — a purpose-built aerodynamic rim configuration that reduces wheel-arch drag and delivers the deep-dish visual impact characteristic of the 109R programme. Like all AL 13 designs, the D005-109R is manufactured from 6061-T6 aerospace-grade forged aluminum at the Brea, California facility, CNC-machined to a run-out tolerance of 0.007 inch, and built to order in any combination of diameter, width, offset, and PCD. The D005-109R is also available in the 109RD configuration — a dark smoked transparent finish that reveals the forged grain beneath a tinted coat for a premium stealth aesthetic.
Available Sizes
- Diameters: 13" | 14" | 15" | 16" | 17" | 18" | 19" | 20" | 21" | 22" | 23" | 24"
- Width range: 5J to 14.5J — any increment available on request
- 109R barrel profile: deep aerodynamic inner barrel for drag reduction and wheel-arch visual depth
- 109RD variant: dark smoked transparent finish over the 109R barrel — enhanced stealth aesthetic
- PCD options: 5x112, 5x114.3, 5x120, 5x130, 5x108, 5x150 standard; center-lock for supercar applications
- Offset (ET): fully bespoke — any ET confirmed at order to clear your specific brake package
Base D005 design: The D005-109R uses the same AL 13 D005 spoke geometry as the standard AL 13 D005 Forged Wheels — paired here with the deep AERO-109R inner barrel for maximum aero performance and visual impact. If you prefer the D005 design without the 109R barrel, that variant is also available as a standard 1-piece, 2-piece, or 3-piece configuration.
Technical Specifications
- Construction: 1-piece (monoblock) — the 109R deep barrel is integrally forged and machined; 2-piece and 3-piece configurations also available
- Alloy grade: 6061-T6 aerospace-grade forged aluminum billet
- Barrel profile: AERO-109R — specifically engineered for aerodynamic drag reduction at sustained highway (120 km/h+) and track speeds
- Structural validation: Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on every spoke profile and barrel geometry
- Machining: High-speed vertical CNC mills — up to 8 hours of mill time per wheel for the D005-109R's combined spoke and barrel geometry
- Lathe profile: Front and rear lathe-turned; over 70% of raw forging removed to maximise barrel depth and minimise unsprung mass
- Pre-finish prep: Multi-stage hand filing, deburring, buffing, and ceramic bead high-luster polishing before colour application
- Run-out standard: Manufacturing target 0.007"; maximum allowed to ship 0.010"; industry standard 0.030"
- Assembly (2 & 3-piece): Digital Snap-On® Torque Wrenches; each barrel bolt signed off by the assembler
- Team expertise: 70+ years of combined forged wheel engineering experience at AL 13
- Origin: Designed, engineered, and hand-finished in Brea, California (Los Angeles metro area), USA
- Lead time: Made to order — confirmed at purchase; pre-shipping photos provided before crating
The AERO-109R advantage: Where a standard wheel barrel has an open cross-section that allows turbulent airflow to re-enter the wheel arch behind the spokes, the 109R deep barrel contains and redirects this airflow, reducing the drag coefficient at the wheel arch without adding the unsprung weight penalty of a full disc design. In high-performance driving contexts — sustained autobahn speeds, circuit use, high-downforce aerodynamic builds — the reduction in wheel-arch turbulence is measurable and, in some cases, directly contributes to improved straight-line stability.
Finish & Color Options
- Transparent finishes: Carbon Red, Combustion Blue, Cali Gold, Liquid Bronze, Champion Bronze, Clear, Shadow Silver, Shadow Grey, Shadow Black — reveals the forged grain through the colour
- Base surface treatments: Gloss Brushed | Gloss Polished | Gloss Stone | Matte Brushed | Matte Polished | Matte Stone — six treatments pair with the transparent range
- Solid opaque finishes: Custom RAL, Pantone, or OEM paint codes in Gloss, Satin, or Texture
- Premium configurations: Two-tone face/barrel, polished lip / matte face, colour-matched to body paint or wrap code
- 109RD Dark: Exclusive to the 109R programme — smoked mirror-finish transparent over the forged grain; available in D005-109R configuration on request
AL 13's global finish partners — Brisbane (Australia), Tokyo (Japan), Hamburg (Germany) — supply the transparent and specialty coatings used on the AERO-109R Series. Colour verification images and sample chips are provided before production begins on any custom specification.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AL 13 D005-109R?
The D005-109R is a forged aluminum wheel pairing AL 13's foundational D005 D Series spoke design with the AERO-109R deep barrel profile. Manufactured from 6061-T6 aerospace aluminum in Brea, California; available in 1-piece, 2-piece, and 3-piece; built to order in 13"–24" diameters.
What is the 109R barrel?
The 109R is a deep aerodynamic inner barrel profile engineered to contain wheel-arch airflow, reducing the drag coefficient at sustained speed. It is integrated into the D005-109R forging and machined to the same 0.007" run-out standard as all AL 13 products.
What is the 109RD variant?
The 109RD applies a dark smoked transparent finish to the 109R barrel — providing a premium stealth aesthetic with the forged grain visible beneath the tint. Available on the D005-109R on request at [email protected].
What cars does the D005-109R fit?
Any modern performance or luxury platform — Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren, Audi, Mercedes-AMG, BMW M, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, and more. Every set is manufactured to your specific PCD, offset, and brake clearance.
What sizes are available?
Diameters 13" to 24", widths 5J to 14.5J. The 109R barrel provides maximum aero benefit in 20"–24" diameters.
How long does delivery take?
Lead time confirmed at order. Worldwide shipping adds 3–10 business days after production. Pre-shipping photos provided before crating.

Wheel Care
- Clean with a pH-neutral wheel cleaner and soft microfiber or natural-hair brush. Acid and alkaline products etch AL 13's brushed and polished finishes.
- Rinse with cool water before applying any product; avoid hot surfaces.
- Apply 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 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; any significant strike should be assessed by a wheel specialist before further high-speed use.
