In this video, we go in-depth on the technical design and engineering behind UP-RW aka Road Warrior — Unplugged Performance’s latest 6061-T6 forged monoblock UP-Forged wheel. Built to withstand the demands of Robotaxi fleets and everyday Tesla owners, this will be the last wheel you'll ever need.
Here’s what sets the Road Warrior apart from everything else on the market:
Crafted from 6061-T6 material:
The highest strength-to-weight ratio. No cast failures. No compromises. No Shortcuts.
Extreme Load Rating:
Same structural integrity as our UP-FIT Police wheels — trusted in real-world high-impact environments and law enforcement clients.
Aerodynamic Efficiency at High Speeds:
In development testing, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) data validated that the UP-RW wheel nearly matched Tesla’s lowest drag production wheel, the 18” Photon Aero Covered wheel, with the UP-RW coming within 0.010 Cd.
Integrated Metal Curb Guard:
A metal, form-fitting, replaceable guard engineered into the wheel design to protect your rim while preserving clean aesthetics.
Factory Tire Compatibility:
Reuse your OEM tires — no size changes, no guesswork on tire sizes, and a lower total upgrade cost.
