TOP 10 AUTOMOTIVE REPLACEMENT FLYWHEELS REVIEWS
Find high-quality replacement flywheels, clutch kits, and flywheel bolts for your car, truck, or ATV. OEM and performance options available.
The flywheel is a critical component in manual transmission vehicles, responsible for storing rotational energy and providing a surface for the clutch to engage. When your flywheel wears out, you'll notice issues like clutch slippage, vibration, or difficulty shifting. Replacing a damaged or worn flywheel is essential for maintaining smooth power delivery and the longevity of your transmission system.
Whether you need an OEM-spec replacement for daily driving or a lightweight performance flywheel for racing applications, selecting the right part is crucial. Our curated selection includes durable, precision-engineered flywheels and related components for a wide range of vehicles, ensuring you get back on the road with optimal performance and reliability.

Traditional solid flywheels (SMF) are durable and easily resurfaced, ideal for performance and heavy-duty applications. Dual-Mass Flywheels (DMFs), common in modern vehicles, reduce drivetrain noise and vibration. If replacing a DMF, you must decide whether to use another DMF or convert to a Solid Mass Flywheel (often requiring a specific conversion kit).
Flywheels are typically made of cast iron or steel. For performance upgrades, lightweight aluminum flywheels are available. Aluminum reduces rotational mass, allowing the engine to rev faster, but they may increase engine idle roughness. Choose a material based on your vehicle's intended use—OEM weight for daily driving, lighter for track performance.
Always verify the flywheel's compatibility with your specific year, make, model, and engine size. Incorrect fitment can lead to serious transmission damage. Pay close attention to the number of teeth on the starter ring gear and the overall diameter to ensure proper engagement with the clutch and starter motor.
When replacing the flywheel, it is highly recommended to replace the entire clutch kit (pressure plate, clutch disc, and throw-out bearing) and the flywheel bolts. Using a new flywheel with worn clutch components can lead to premature failure of the new part. Look for reputable brands like LuK or Centerforce for guaranteed system compatibility.
Common symptoms include excessive clutch chatter or vibration when engaging the clutch, a burning smell (especially with Dual-Mass Flywheels), difficulty shifting gears, or a grinding noise when starting the engine (if the starter ring gear is damaged).
Solid Mass Flywheels (SMF) can often be resurfaced if the damage is minor. However, Dual-Mass Flywheels (DMF) cannot be resurfaced and must be replaced entirely if damaged or worn. Always consult your vehicle's repair manual.
OEM flywheels are designed for standard vehicle operation, focusing on durability and smooth operation. Performance flywheels are often lighter to improve acceleration and may feature stronger materials to handle higher torque from modified engines.
