Details

CITIC Dicastal, a leading aluminum wheel manufacturer, designed the Red Armor Dragon Scale wheel, using precise spray-painting. The classic black and red color creates a visual impact, imbued with power and wild beauty. The dragon scale texture is 3D laser-engraved, balancing quality with durability, blending fashion with mechanical aesthetics. During high-speed rotation, the wheel creates a play of light and shadow, reminiscent of the breathing of dragon scales. A small window air deflector reduces drag by 80%, while maximizing brake system heat dissipation, resulting in a 5%-8% reduction in fuel consumption compared to conventional wheels.
