BRAID Wheels

Custom Wheels for Competition and Road Cars

BRAID Wheels designs and manufactures high-performance wheels for motorsport, off-road use, performance vehicles, and prototypes. Based in Igualada, Barcelona, the company calls itself “The Wheel Tailors” and develops custom solutions in a wide range of sizes, fitments, and finishes.

Manufacturing wheels since 1978, BRAID has nearly 50 years of experience. It serves racing teams and automakers as well as enthusiasts seeking track performance for road cars. The company highlights its flexibility in producing short runs—even a single prototype wheel—and meeting tight delivery schedules.

Product Lines

• Motorsport: Rally and circuit-racing wheels made from high-end materials, with lightweight, aerodynamic designs refined through direct feedback from the track.
• Off-road: Wheels for demanding events such as the Dakar Rally and Baja races, with integrated beadlock systems for low-pressure driving on rocky and sandy terrain and high load capacity.
• Performance: Lightweight wheels for road and track cars, with custom designs and finishes intended to improve handling, efficiency, and response.
• Prototype & Test: Custom engineering for the automotive industry, from concept cars to dynamic testing, using 3D simulations and advanced manufacturing processes.

Technology and Materials

BRAID uses advanced aluminum and magnesium alloys and manufacturing processes including FullFlowcast, FlowForming, and aluminum and magnesium forging. Each wheel undergoes extensive testing to balance strength and durability with low weight. Some models carry TÜV certification, including the 18-inch BPR-01 FF.
