Do you know what they're made of

Recently there are many friends asked small series, want to let small series help them to choose modified wheels. Xiao Bian want to tell you, to buy better wheels to the local store to buy or consult professionals, do not listen to a treasure above those exaggerated advertising. Here's a little bit of information about what the wheels are made of so that you can get a better estimate of their cost. Wheels on the market can be divided into two broad categories: steel wheels and alloy wheels. There's good and there's bad. The cost of making steel wheels is relatively low, and the ability to resist metal fatigue is strong, belongs to the cheap solid type, but there is no appearance to speak of, a lot of weight, heat dissipation is also poor, very easy to rust. Alloy wheels, on the other hand, are made with high precision, which makes them relatively expensive, visually appealing, and light in weight, which reduces the weight of the whole vehicle and contributes to fuel consumption. And in high-speed rotation will not easily deformation, good heat dissipation, but the price will be much more expensive than steel wheels. Alloy wheels are divided into aluminum alloy wheels, magnesium alloy wheels and carbon fiber composite materials wheels. Aluminum Alloy wheels are made of aluminum and other metals. They have the advantages of light weight, good heat dissipation and small inertia resistance. Magnesium alloy is a light structural material with good mechanical properties. It has been widely used in vehicle and electronic field. Carbon fiber composite wheel hub is a new material wheel hub which has been introduced recently, and it is still rare in the market. But BMW has already tried to install it on the I8, so anyone interested can pay attention to it. In general, steel wheels are cheap and strong, but tend to rust and weigh heavily. Alloy wheel has many advantages, but the cost is high. Some of the alloy wheels under the banner of cheap must be people do not trust the fake, but also please Doddo identify, do not be deceived.
