What you should know when you buy car rims and wheels

Looking to improve the look and performance of your car? A change in your wheels and rims can help you achieve that. But before going to a car wheels dealer, take note first of the following:

• When eyeing for rims and tires, obviously, you should know first if it’s applicable to your vehicle type and model. For example, you can’t put a 4x4 wheels to a car who is obviously not a 4x4. It can be disappointing to learn that the rims you like will not fit your vehicle. Also try to choose wheels fit also for your usage and road conditions.
• There are different sizes of tires, rim diameters and bolt layouts. When choosing a rim make sure that it has the proper bolt layout for your vehicle model. When upsizing, it’s recommended that you choose from the rim and tire sizes prescribed by your manufacturers. Normally, 17, 18 & 20 inch rims are available.

• To complete the look of your car, rims and wheels are available with different finishes- black (can be gloss, satin or matte), gunmetal (grey), machined, milled or chrome. For customised pieces, finishes can be combined with endless possibilities.
• Price of wheels depends on these factors: Size (larger wheels are more expensive), the finish (Chrome finish is pricier than other finishes), and material and construction (alloy wheels which are great on off-road and mountains side drives are more expensive than the steel wheels)
