What makes the D3 wheel unique is the innovative grip feeling, the attention to detail in its construction, and the MPI technology used to improve its safety. The inner structure has been engineered to deform under elevated impacts, absorbing the load and reducing the effect on the drivers upper body, offering an engineered safety advantage. The inner foam injection has been developed to have the highest vibration absorption rate in the industry. We tweaked the new extreme oval shaped grip makes the holding of the wheel an even more natural feel for the driver.
What makes the D3 different from the D2 is the new outer grip that has been created with a textured polyurethane injected foam partially covered with extreme grip RG material finished with a sporty and durable MPI Orange™ crossed stitched technique, giving the driver a firm grip that prevents fatigue and facilitates holding the wheel even with one-handed usage. The MPI difference is seen in the new spoke structure featuring a rounded edge for increased safety CNC machined after anodization creating a black silver contrast finish.
Each wheel is individually serial numbered for traceability and it comes complete with the MPI love, attention to detail, and a super light center pad for added driver protection.
