Forged wheels for C1 & C2 — classic soul, modern miles.
Corvette
From solid-axle roadsters to the split-window Sting Ray, these cars were never meant to sit still. Our forged 17s keep the period look and add the tire choices, brake clearance, and drivability that let you actually drive it.
Full-size presence. SS restraint.
Impala
From '58 cruisers to the '64 icon, the Impala wore hubcaps and spinner covers over stamped steel. The wheels we're building honor that language — full-size presence, Super Sport restraint — engineered for how these cars roll today.
A-body muscle, held to the road.
Chevelle
Chevelle culture grew up on Rally wheels and big-block torque. Our forged designs keep that late-sixties honesty while adding the width, clearance, and strength a driven Chevelle actually needs.
First-gen attitude, forged right.
Camaro
From base '67s on hubcaps to Z/28s on fifteen-inch Rallys, the first-generation Camaro defined the pony-car stance. We're forging wheels that keep that stance honest — and make it drivable.
The original pony car, forged to run.
Mustang
From '64½ ponies on hubcaps to big-block '67 fastbacks, the first-generation Mustang became America's favorite classic. We forge wheels that keep that era honest — with the strength, clearance, and manners a driven Mustang needs.
Tri-Five Chevrolet. America's classic, forged to drive.
Bel Air
From the Hot One’s new V8 in 1955 to the gold-trimmed fins of ’57, the Tri-Five became the shape America means by "classic Chevy." We forge wheels that keep that era honest — period-correct looks, with the strength and fitment to actually drive.
The classic Chevy truck. Half a ton of American history.
C10
From the Apache badges of 1960 to the Cheyenne trim of ’72, Chevrolet taught the pickup to ride like a car — and America never let go of them. We forge wheels drawn to the era’s proportions, not the show floor’s.

How Our Wheels Are Made
Forged From a Single Block.
In the 1960s, a wheel left the factory as stamped steel — pressed in pieces, welded together, dressed up with a hubcap. It was the best the era could build. Every VFW wheel starts differently: one solid block of forged aluminum, shaped under pressure and machined to tolerances that didn't exist back then. Same soul. Stronger metal.
-
One Solid Block
Every wheel begins as a single solid billet of 6061-T6 aluminum. No welds, no seams, no separate pieces — the entire wheel is in that block.
-
Forged Under Pressure
A forging press works the billet under thousands of tons of pressure — aligning the metal's grain and closing the voids a casting leaves behind. Heat treatment locks in that strength.
-
Machined to Fit Your Car
CNC machines cut the final form — bolt pattern, backspacing, and profile matched to the fitment we confirm with you first.
-
Finished and Inspected
Balanced, inspected, and finished to order. Then it's crated, insured, and on its way to your garage.

Why We Exist
He Couldn't Buy the Right Wheel. So He Built It.
Vintage Forged Wheels didn't start as a company. It started as one owner's problem — a vintage Corvette he actually wanted to drive, and a wheel that didn't exist.
-
He wanted to drive it.
A vintage Corvette driven often — not garaged. That meant better tires, easier miles, less weight, and no twenty-thousand-dollar one-off custom program to get there.
-
Nothing existed.
Forums. Facebook. YouTube. Every search ended the same way — nothing that fit right, drove right, and still looked like it belonged on the car.
-
So he designed his own.
He drew the wheel he couldn't buy and sent the design to a forging manufacturer. The first set came back machined from solid forged aluminum.
-
They bolted on. That's the history.
Shipped to his house. Installed in his garage. Driven ever since — and now built for every owner with the same problem.
