Wheels for cars fall into two broad categories. This is a standard steel (inflow discharges), which are often set at the factory, and alloy
For most vinnichan problem of choosing the wheels solved the acquisition of modern and beautiful cast wheels. A significant number of new cars priced above 19,000 dollars as standard are alloy wheels.
However, when buying an inexpensive car Vinnytsia drivers often prefer a more aesthetic "casting". As a rule, "it became" immediately changed and remains under winter tires.
How to choose alloy wheels for your car and what you should know when buying a rather expensive?
Alloy wheels for many properties of steel is better. They admit any games with the design, they have the highest manufacturing precision, they are perfectly remove heat from the inhibitory site, but most importantly - they are lightweight (lighter wheels, the smaller the total mass of unsprung parts of the car, and hence the better). This is a common dignity. Judged as to their pros and cons can only be given the manner in which and from which it is an alloy they are made. There are many nuances Wheel strife.
The method for manufacturing a light-alloy wheels are divided into cast and wrought iron. Cast disk has the internal structure of the metal grain, and this is its main disadvantage: if a long ride on potholes in the metal is in the process of accumulation of microcracks (invisible and therefore dangerous) that sooner or later manifest themselves - from bounce disk may split.
Forged same metal which has a multi-layer fibrous structure, extremely durable, potholes are not afraid of him, he does not crack under any conditions (forging provides the necessary plasticity). Crumple it is theoretically possible, but rather smashed suspension than pomnetsya flange forged wheels.
Pour and forge wheels made of aluminum and magnesium alloys. If you place the light-alloy wheels in order "from minus to plus" for purely technical parameters, the series will be: cast magnesium (easy, but whimsical, fast crack), cast aluminum (standard on the set of qualities), forged aluminum (strong and lightweight) and forged magnesium (heavy-duty and lightweight).
But when choosing a drive, it is clear not only the technical parameters of the play. Advise immediately reject extremes: magnesium wheels, as cast and forged - very rare, they usually do only custom-made for sports cars. The price of magnesium may be off-scale for $ 1000 (each).
- Discs are of two types. Standard steel and alloy. Alloy in turn are divided into light-weight alloy and forged. They have less weight compared to steel, they are shock resistant. Forged wheels are primarily focused on tuning the group that is popular enough in Vinnitsa.
From the latest innovations can be noted alloy wheels with such materials as carbon fiber and chrome. Appear tuning wheels with airbrushing, which look great in the "charged" sports models. The minimum price threshold for the cast wheels - from 1000 hryvnia, the top is difficult to call, because exclusive models are possible, that brought to order.
Generally any decent drive on the reverse side should have a specific list of labels, which contain all the information about the manufacturer, date of manufacture and certification number of the disk - the seller says cast wheels on the market, "Saturn" Leonid.
