    it forms the profile to spin the aluminium plate to make new halves.
    the die suit most 15' "reverse" style wheels with straight dish
    it makes 3.5"and 5" halves at the moment but could be modified to make almost any size.
    there are a few metal spinning places around that are able to make halves but need this die.

    for example the wheels that i started with were 6.5"wide and used this die to make them 8s and 9.5s
