Bucci Composites Carbon Fiber Car Wheels: TÜV Tests Are a Success
Bucci Composites successfully completed the TÜV tests for our 22" carbon fiber car wheels
This outstanding result, achieved after years of development in collaboration with a prestigious global OEM, marks a milestone in the carbon wheel market and opens the doors to an upcoming launch on both the Italian and international markets.
What Are TÜV Tests?
TÜV tests are certifications that ensure the safety, quality, and compliance of a product with the most stringent European standards. To obtain these certifications, carbon wheels for cars must pass a series of tests that evaluate resistance, durability, and safety under different usage conditions, such as:
- Side and frontal impact tests, simulating impacts with curbs or potholes.
- Fatigue tests to verify the wheel's resistance to repeated loads over time.
- High-speed resistance tests.
Passing the TÜV tests ensures that the product is reliable and safe for road use.
Unique Innovation and Performance of Carbon Wheels
The Bucci Composites carbon wheels stand out for their elegant and sporty design, the result of the company's thirty years of experience in designing and producing composite components for the automotive, aerospace, industrial, and marine sectors.
Our fully carbon wheel, unique in its kind, has passed all the stringent TÜV tests, an achievement unmatched by any other carbon fiber wheel manufacturer on the European market at the time of writing this article.
Thanks to this success, Bucci Composites has set a new standard in the carbon fiber wheel market, offering unparalleled safety and performance. The wheel also demonstrated its qualities on the track, taking on the legendary Nürburgring, one of the world's most renowned tracks, to ensure an extraordinary driving experience.
Benefits of Bucci Composites Carbon Wheels
The Bucci Composites carbon fiber wheels offer numerous advantages over forged aluminum wheels. The weight savings of 6 kg per wheel translates to increased steering precision, thanks to reduced rotational inertia, and more effective suspension tuning, significantly improving driving comfort and reducing tire wear.
The reduced flex of the carbon fiber wheel when cornering also contributes to a smoother and more comfortable driving experience.

Advanced Technology
One of the most innovative aspects of the Bucci Composites wheel lies in the manufacturing process, which uses high-pressure RTM technology (High Pressure Resin-Transfer-Moulding), with the application of exclusive patents that ensure the highest product quality.
High-pressure RTM technology is an advanced process for producing composite material components, especially used in the automotive and aerospace industries. In this process, reinforcing fibers (such as carbon fiber) are placed in a mold, and a liquid resin is injected at high pressure to impregnate the fibers and fill the mold evenly.
Once the resin has hardened, a rigid and lightweight part is obtained, strong but also very precise in shape, making it ideal for applications requiring high performance and lightness.
Bucci Composites: Italian Excellence in Carbon Fiber Wheel Production
Located in the heart of the Motor Valley in Faenza, the company utilizes the most advanced technologies for producing composite material components and boasts an R&D department with over 20 specialized engineers, 250 employees, and 22,000 square meters of facilities.
The company manages the entire development cycle of a component, from design to final quality control, always ensuring the highest levels of precision and reliability.
