Read ARCRESO design notes on spoke shape, concavity, wheel finishes and the visual decisions that shape a build.

Compare brushed, polished, satin dark, gloss dark and bronze through surface, reflection and contrast. Prepare a finish direction for your car.

Open space and repeated fine lines can give a stationary wheel a sense of motion. It is a visual rhythm, rather than a measured performance result.

Dark finishes can bring a car together or soften the wheel detail. Light, reflections and the contrast around the arch decide what remains visible.

Spoke depth changes light, shadow and the character of a build. See how concavity relates to width, offset, the mounting arrangement and the vehicle around it.

A face that falls inward can give a large SUV a more sculptural character. Follow the light, the center and the relationship to the body.
