Description

The TYPE 1 and TYPE 2 GT Wings are the foundational pillars of VOLTEX’s aerodynamic lineup—proven, balanced designs that have established the brand’s reputation for quality and performance. As the entry point into genuine GT wing aerodynamics, these models offer distinct philosophies: the TYPE 2 serves as the versatile, confidence-inspiring baseline suitable for most applications, while the TYPE 1 provides a more focused, low-drag alternative for weight-conscious builds. Together, they represent the intelligent starting point for enthusiasts seeking measurable performance gains without extreme specialization.

Product Highlights

⚖️ TYPE 2: The Balanced Foundation
The quintessential GT wing—offering predictable downforce, stable high-speed manners, and versatile compatibility across various FR (front-engine, rear-wheel-drive) platforms. Its balanced profile makes it the recommended starting point for most street and track applications.

🌬️ TYPE 1: The Efficient Alternative
A purposefully compact, low-drag evolution of the TYPE 2, featuring reduced frontal area and chord width. Engineered for drivers prioritizing aerodynamic efficiency over maximum downforce, particularly in lightweight or momentum-based vehicles.

🛡️ Proven Reliability & Wide Compatibility
Both models benefit from VOLTEX’s extensive real-world testing and refinement, offering dependable performance across diverse conditions from spirited street driving to club-level circuit use.

📐 Scalable Sizing Philosophy
TYPE 2 offers the broadest size range (1,400–1,700mm), allowing fine-tuned proportion matching to different vehicle widths, while TYPE 1 focuses on the most popular compact dimensions (1,400/1,500mm).

Specifications

• TYPE 1 Width: 1,400mm / 1,500mm

• TYPE 2 Width: 1,400mm,1,500mm / 1,600mm, 1,700mm

• Airfoil Chord: TYPE 1: 270mm | TYPE 2: 300mm

• Category: Foundation Series GT Wings (Balanced Performance)

Remarks

✅ TYPE 2: The Default Recommendation for FR Cars
For most FR vehicle owners seeking their first GT wing, especially for street-legal applications, TYPE 2 provides the ideal balance of presence, performance, and proportion.

⚠️ TYPE 1 Consideration for Specific Applications
While TYPE 1 excels in low-drag scenarios, VOLTEX notes that on FR cars configured for street compliance, it may feel “insufficient in volume.” TYPE 2 is typically recommended for these applications instead.

🎯 Start Here, Then Specialize
These wings serve as the perfect introduction to structured aerodynamics. As driving style and vehicle modifications evolve, owners can progress to more specialized TYPEs (3, 5, 7, etc.) with clearer understanding of their aerodynamic preferences.
