So did you ever wonder how rims are made? Velocity USA published a video on their Vimeo channel to show us how it’s done, in 66 seconds. Obviously, the process takes longer than that, but it gives you the quick version of how their rims are hand-built in their Jacksonville, Florida facility.
If you want to see how the wheels are then built, check out this video from The Wheel Department of Velocity USA.
Enjoy!
