A lot of wheels sellers use this term, often associated with the wheel's color, i.e. black PVD, silver PDV. I'm clueless.
Thanks.

 

Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) is a time tested proven technology that has been used for decades in other industries. It is now available for automotive wheels. This new state of the art process provides a superior alternative to traditional “Chrome Plating”.

 

Thanks, 50.

It's used a lot on golf wedges. A nice pvd finish holds up well.

 

PVD is the airport in RI short for Providence.. or what they just said..
