How $10,000 American Force Wheels Are Made | My Wrecked Rebuilt 2023 GMC Duramax Denali Build Part 8
Ойын-сауық
We visited American Force and filmed the entire manufacturing process of my own custom forged wheels! Not everybody gets to experience a process like this so my Dad and I were excited to film this so you could experience it the way we did. My favorite part about this episode not only is watching the insane steps it takes to create forged wheels like this.. but also the fact that these wheels are American made! American Force in South Carolina is a 200,000+ sq foot facility that produces thousands of wheels, with 38 CNC mills running 24/7. Please let us know how you like this episode we have been excited to share this with everyone.
WHAT COLOR SHOLD WE PAINT THESE WHEELS???? I CANT DECIDED😭 PLEASE LIST YOUR TOP 2 COLORS

Wow that sign is extremely un-American.... So does that mean you can only open carry when you go there?!? Because leaving the gun at home isn't an option....

American Force Wheels, that was very interesting Brad, very interesting, Thanks. 👍👍🇨🇦
Absolutely amazing process it’s crazy how a lump of metal can be thrown into a machine and come out the other end as a wheel. Or I should say a piece of art. Can’t wait to see them on your truck.

My dad and his dad were both machinist So that’s the world I grew up in They were traditional old school machinist It’s amazing g what automation has brought the art to. It’s impressive but it will never be as impressive as the work the old school guys did with a lot of kno experience and a to. Of patience Great video Brad.

The powder coating has come a long way. I used to have mine done at a place in NorCal called Maas Brothers used to do my coating for a 30 pack of Coors Light. Ok it might have been that I delivered to them to and collected the CODs in the afternoon but hey it’s the perks.
Bad ass !
Pretty sick process. It's not easy work. I had a buddy that put their wheels through hell, and they held up. Great choice 👌

Those tool cabinets are coded to the "job number" for cost coding, and billing. Tells you what it costs to run that part of the process
You should do a florescent blue metallic anodized look to them with some black powder in the edge lettering. What size wheels and tires combo are you going with? And what kind of tires? That is the wheel I picked last week fo sho!
Can't wait to have disposable income so I can pickup some 26x14!!!!!

Some people will never understand why things cost so much . . . these wheels are custom designed and manufactured on a whole different level. You want the best, it's gonna cost you!
Love the difference between Dad and Brad. Brad is about the "fist bump". Where Dad is about the "Hand Shake" . Old school the way it should be.

I wanted The Military Line wheels. For a Decade now , I think it’s called Combat a simple Design , it’s Center plate is like that Famous Raceline Design with tomb Stone shape cut outs and a machined Line between each hole but I live in Hawaii Shipping Always Was the Deal Breaker , cost me the price of the 5th Wheel I kinda Seen the Design you chose Nice ,
Such a crazy process! $10k for wheels is outta most people’s budget but that’s not saying the rims aren’t worth it.
Your Dad knows what's up.
RIM + TIRE = WHEEL

I like deep dish wheels ON A CAR. I'm such a garbage driver, I'd break off the wheel studs in a week from curb checking everything in sight. These have to be made for open-wheel guys or any vehicle without fenders
love your videos. but whats up with the audio?
Gloss black lip and accents with mat black face to match the truck
Did you splurge and get 5 wheels. Or just 4 and hope for never getting a blowout

That's not that impressive I worked at place doing rebar fabrication that has those same vending machines and that shop just got closed so they obviously aren't that Hugh scale
Just a little note. When doing videos like this why not wait the couple extra days and film everything you filmed but then also finish product going on the truck? For simple rim and tire video you should atleast make sure you get to show finished product instead of doing this and we all know now your going to try and make another video of just putting them on truck. Help your channel by not doing that.
