If you’re a follower of motorsports of any kind, then you already know about Mercedes’ long motor sports history. Dating all the way back to 1923. But Mercedes’ automotive history in general goes much farther back. To a gentleman named Karl Benz. While many believe that Henry Ford invented the first car in 1904, it was actually Karl Benz who invented the first car in 1884[source]. As businesses go, there’s trial, error, experimentation, and successes and given that Mercedes has been around for over a century – they’re definitely a huge success. One of their flagship cars currently is the Mercedes AMG GTR.
Appropriately dubbed “The Beast of the Green Hell”, the Mercedes AMG GTR pushes the limits of driving by combining AMGs racing expertise and development to create a much more enjoyable AMG driving experience. With a top speed of 198mph, and 0-60 speed of 3.6 seconds, this car is not to be bullied. Mercedes has never integrated this much motorsport technology and features into a car like they have with the GTR. This car pushes 580 horsepower from a 4.0 liter bi-turbo V8 engine through an AMG 7-speed dual clutch transmission from factory, which, is sure to slam anyone into the back of their seat. You’d think no one would ever want to touch this car with aftermarket parts, given how expensive this car can be. But of course, if that were the case we wouldn’t be in business right now.
Ferrada is one wheel manufacturer with a huge presence in the car community. Everything from Muscle to VIP, Exotics, and everything in between. Chances are those enthusiasts know who Ferrada is. We can guarantee that this wont be the only or last blog post where we talk about them or the cool cars that get Ferrada wheels. Combine a set of Ferrada wheels with a car like Mercedes’ AMG GTR and you get one gorgeous work of moving art.
Ferrada’s Forge-8 Line of wheels is only possible because of their exclusive manufacturing process. Where most manufactures use one roller, Ferrada’s Forge-8 line uses 8 hydraulic rollers. These rollers apply pressure to a heated barrel the way your normal rotary forged or spun forged wheel gets done, except the use of 8 rollers reduces barrel thickness by 15% over the industry standard while simultaneously increasing strength and durability. Ferrada’s FR7 wheel is a standout wheel. Every angle of this wheel was designed to add performance and style. Take a look at the video and gallery below for more images of this stunning AMG GTR with Ferrada FR7 wheels.
