Alloy Wheel

Alloy wheels are wheels manufactured from an alloy of aluminium or magnesium. They are lighter than steel wheels, improve heat dissipation from brakes, and are available in a wider variety of designs. Alloy wheels require careful handling during tyre fitting to avoid cosmetic damage. They are more susceptible to kerb damage and corrosion than steel wheels. Many tyre businesses offer alloy wheel refurbishment as an additional revenue stream.
