ForgeX Speed to Showcase Forged Wheel Expertise at The 21st China International Tire Expo 2026
ForgeX Speed will present its forged wheel capabilities and a selection of custom wheel designs at The 21st China International Tire Expo 2026, connecting with global wheel brands, importers, distributors, wholesalers and automotive aftermarket businesses in Shanghai.
September 2–4, 2026 | Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center | Booth 1562
ForgeX Speed, a forged wheel manufacturer with more than 11 years of production experience, will exhibit at The 21st China International Tire Expo 2026 (CITEXPO), taking place September 2–4 in Shanghai.
As one of the major international trade platforms dedicated to the tire and wheel industry, CITEXPO brings together manufacturers, suppliers, distributors and professional buyers from markets around the world. The exhibition provides an important opportunity for ForgeX Speed to connect directly with industry professionals and explore new cooperation opportunities across the global automotive aftermarket.
For ForgeX Speed, participation in the exhibition is about more than displaying products on the booth. It also represents years of accumulated experience working across the global aftermarket wheel industry.
The company has long served aftermarket wheel brands, importers, regional wholesalers, wheel distributors and automotive customization shops, providing forged wheel development, customization and OEM/ODM manufacturing services tailored to the needs of different markets.
What Visitors Will See: Forged Wheels Across Multiple Segments
At Booth 1562, visitors will be able to explore a selection of ForgeX Speed forged wheel designs covering multiple construction types and vehicle applications.
The display will include:
- 1-piece forged wheels
- 2-piece forged wheels
- 3-piece forged wheels
- Performance and sports car applications
- JDM-inspired wheel designs
- Truck and SUV wheels
- Off-road and 4x4 applications
- Large-diameter forged wheel programs
The lineup will feature both established designs and newer developments, allowing visitors to explore different wheel structures, spoke architectures, concave profiles, lip configurations and finish options in person.
Unlike product images viewed online, the exhibition provides an opportunity to examine the details that matter in an actual wheel program — including forged surfaces, CNC-machined structures, assembly details and finishing quality.
For brands and buyers developing new wheel projects, the display is designed to provide a practical reference point: existing designs can serve as a starting point for customization, while completely new concepts can also move toward development and production.
From Design to Production Under One Roof
Behind the products displayed at CITEXPO is ForgeX Speed's integrated manufacturing capability.
The company produces forged wheels using 6061-T6 aluminum and a 12,000-ton forging press, supported by a 30,000-square-meter manufacturing facility and more than 100 CNC machines.
From wheel design and engineering to machining, finishing and fitment development, key stages of the manufacturing process are handled in-house.
This integrated approach allows ForgeX Speed to support projects involving:
- Custom wheel design
- PCD, offset and center bore development
- Vehicle-specific fitment
- Custom finishes
- Deep concave and deep-lip configurations
- Private-label wheel programs
- OEM / ODM manufacturing
For buyers building their own wheel brands, the goal is not simply to purchase an existing wheel design. ForgeX Speed works with customers throughout the development process, helping turn a concept into production-ready wheel specifications.
Global Aftermarket Experience Beyond Manufacturing
ForgeX Speed's experience extends beyond factory production.
Over the years, the company has worked with customers across multiple international markets, including aftermarket wheel brands, importers, distributors, wholesalers and automotive customization businesses.
Different markets often require different approaches to vehicle fitment, styling preferences, product positioning and business models. Through long-term cooperation with customers in various regions, ForgeX Speed has developed practical experience supporting different types of wheel programs — from established private-label brands to businesses entering the custom forged wheel category for the first time.
This experience allows the company to approach projects not only from a manufacturing perspective, but also from the standpoint of product development and market application.
For new brands, flexible project entry can help reduce the risk of launching a new wheel program. For established distributors and wheel companies, customized development provides an opportunity to expand into new vehicle segments or create products with a more distinctive market identity.
Meet ForgeX Speed at CITEXPO 2026
Wheel development often involves more than selecting a design.
Vehicle applications, fitment specifications, structural requirements, customization options, branding and production planning all need to be considered before a project moves forward.
CITEXPO provides an opportunity to discuss those details face-to-face.
During the exhibition, the ForgeX Speed team will be available to discuss:
- Custom forged wheel development
- OEM / ODM manufacturing
- Private-label wheel programs
- New wheel design development
- Truck and SUV wheel projects
- Off-road and 4x4 applications
- JDM and performance wheel programs
- Large-diameter forged wheels
- Custom fitment solutions
- Product photography and marketing support
