A method for forming a vehicle wheel including a wheel rim defining opposing inboard and outboard annular flanges, inboard and outboard tire bead seats adjacent respective inboard and outboard flanges, and a rim barrel between the inboard and outboard tire bead seats. The method includes the step of machining a wheel shape in a clamping area adjacent one of the inboard and outboard flanges of the vehicle wheel. The clamping area of the wheel shape is then secured within a chuck of a lathe. In one chucking, the wheel shape is machined to form the inboard and outboard tire bead seats of the vehicle wheel.
