[ "Know Things about alloy wheels;There are different categories of wheels in the market depending upon purpose, size, quality and durability. Alloy wheels have gained huge popularity among car owners over time. The most common question that comes to mind when choosing between alloys and simple steel wheels(also known as alloy rims and steel rims) is why alloy wheels are better, although steel is also an alloy of iron and carbonThese wheels are made up of magnesium or aluminium alloy (because of their lightweight character). Alloys being mixtures of a metal and other elements, combine their qualities such as hardness, rigidity etc. Hence, they provide better strength than pure metals because they are softer and more ductile. On the other hand, alloys are much lighter for the same strength and reduce suspension or unsprung mass. Less suspension allows faster acceleration and better performance. This helps in reducing fuel consumption. It is important to know that one should not buy replicas of alloy wheels as they are made with cheap material and are not safe. However, they are;Cheap WheelsThey also provide better heat conduction, handling and grip. A more open-wheel design can help reduce heat from the brakes, improving braking performance in unusual conditions, which also avoids overheating. Due to their ability for heat conduction, they also increase the durability of the tyre;and helps them last longer, which means the tyres can be used more efficiently. Another thumbs up for alloys is their non-corrosive nature due to the combination of different metals and elements. This is a major plus point for people living in a coastal area as metal corrodes rapidly in the presence of humidityThe greatest reason people love Alloy Wheels is that they look stylish and enhance the car's overall look. Brands offer different striking designs of alloy wheels in the market. Alloy wheels are customizable, which makes them more appealing to the eyes. Many Indian car companies offer alloy wheels with cars as a luxury feature. Some categories of alloy wheels available are Diamond Cut, Laser Edged, etc.LARGE ALLOY WHEELS:;These wheels are available in different designs and sizes in the market, most common being 15, 16 and 17 inches. One can use any size or design depending upon the recommendations of the manufacturerBentley Alloys;wheels which are 17 inches and above, have become desirable and are used by numerous car owners either as an extra one or package or as part of the trim.Larger alloys fill the wheel arches better and are more proportionate with the rest of the car's body. This takes the look of the car up a notch and also adds to the value of the car at the time of resale. They also provide better handling. If a car is fitted with smaller alloys, the rubber in the tyres tends to bend more when the car turns (because of the weight). This causes the wheels to lose grip. tyres for small alloys are thicker in width; that is why the surface of the tyres maintains more contact with the road when fitted with large alloy wheelsDISADVANTAGES OF ALLOY WHEELS:;Alloy wheels are comparatively expensive than other wheels in the market. They are also very high maintenance and are expensive to repair. The complex and elaborate designing and manufacturing of these wheels make them expensive even for manufacturing companies. They are roughly 50% more expensive than the regular steel wheels, so they are not featured in low budget cars.They are not as strong and rigid as steel wheels and crack very easily. Even the slightest damage can cause dents on the wheel and degrades the look of the car. This decreases their durability and lifespan. Alloy wheels last up to 3-5 years on average and have to get checked after that.Once alloy wheels are damaged, they are very difficult to repair. The overall procedure is very complex and expensive as well. Bringing them back in shape is a quite tasking procedure. However, that is not the case for steel wheels" ]
