Abstract - The need for vehicle production now is an increase in vehicle demand at a lower rate. Customers' expectations in terms of longevity, effectiveness, and affordability are increasing tremendously. Automobile wheels constructed of an alloy of aluminium or magnesium metals, or occasionally a combination of the two alloys, are known as alloy wheels. Because they are lighter than steel wheels, alloy wheels are superior to steel wheels for motorcycle driving and handling. Overdesigned vehicle load components increase weight and decrease efficiency. The suspension system supports all of the wheels, which can be changed and adjusted to reduce weight and expense. All of the wheels carry the vehicle's sprung mass. There were already existing alloy components in the reverse-engineered and CAD modelled using CATIA V5 software.
