AL 13 D002 (Carbon6) - Angular Geometry Reborn in Carbon and Forged Alloy

Where the D002 design language meets aerospace-grade carbon fibre execution

AL 13 D002 (Carbon6) is a six-piece composite wheel that takes the sharp, angular 5-spoke architecture of the D002 and reinterprets it through the material vocabulary of carbon fibre and forged aluminium. The result is not simply a lighter version of a familiar design - it is a fundamentally different object, one where the exposed carbon weave face carries its own visual authority distinct from anything achievable in all-metal construction. The D002 (Carbon6) is built for drivers who want the aggressive geometry of the D002 spoken in a different material language entirely.

AL 13 D002 (Carbon6) Design and Engineering

The defining characteristic of the D002 (Carbon6) is the deliberate contrast between the carbon fibre face and the forged alloy barrel. Where a conventional forged wheel reads as a single material surface, the Carbon6 construction creates visual tension between the matte woven texture of the carbon face and the smooth, machined or anodized finish of the forged barrel. The angular D002 spoke geometry amplifies this contrast further - each spoke edge cuts a hard line that follows and accentuates the directional grain of the carbon fibre layup, making the weave pattern an active element of the design rather than a background texture. The five spokes retain the purposeful, track-influenced profile of the standard D002 while gaining a dimensional quality that only exposed carbon can provide.

AL 13 D002 (Carbon6) Technical Specifications

AL 13 D002 (Carbon6) is assembled from six discrete components, each engineered for its specific structural and aesthetic role. The face panels are fabricated from aerospace-grade carbon fibre, laid up for optimal stiffness-to-weight ratio and finished with a protective clear coat that preserves the weave appearance over time. The centre hub is forged aluminium, machined to precise bolt pattern and offset specifications. The inner barrel and outer lip are separately forged, allowing each section to be optimised for load path and finish independently. Hardware connecting the assembly is rated to the same standards as the structural components. This multi-piece approach delivers a wheel that is meaningfully lighter than a comparable cast or even conventional forged monoblock, with the additional advantage of full custom sizing across diameter, width and offset.

AL 13 D002 (Carbon6) Available Finishes

The Carbon6 construction opens finish possibilities that are unavailable on single-material wheels. The carbon face can be specified in natural clear coat, which allows the full weave pattern to show, or in gloss or matte tinted lacquer for a more uniform appearance while retaining the surface texture. The forged barrel components are finished independently and can be specified in polished, anodized, or painted options across a broad colour range. The most visually striking combination is clear carbon face with polished barrel - the contrast between the woven matte surface and the mirror-finished alloy defines the aesthetic of the Carbon6 line. Customers seeking a more unified look can match barrel finish to a body or brake colour, while the carbon face remains the constant visual anchor of the wheel.

AL 13 D002 (Carbon6) Vehicle Fitment

The D002 (Carbon6) is engineered for exotic and high-performance sports cars where carbon fibre is already embedded in the design language of the vehicle. McLaren models benefit directly from the weight reduction and the visual coherence with exposed carbon panels in the bodywork. Lamborghini Huracan and Urus in track specification gain a wheel that reads as a natural extension of their aerodynamic carbon packages. Ferrari 488 and F8 Tributo fitments allow the wheel face to echo interior and exterior carbon trim elements without visual conflict. Porsche GT2 RS and GT3 RS in track configuration achieve a consistent carbon aesthetic from wheel face to door sill - a cohesion that painted or polished alloy wheels cannot replicate. Across all fitments, the forged construction meets the structural demands of high-power, track-capable platforms.

AL 13 D002 (Carbon6) - Any Vehicle, Any Specification

Custom sizes, offsets and finish combinations are available across the full D002 (Carbon6) range. AL 13 produces each wheel to order, allowing fitment to be dialled in precisely for the D002 angular geometry executed in carbon and forged alloy to suit any vehicle and any specification.
