Custom Rims & Wheels: Car, Truck, Chrome Wheels and Spinning Rims

Welcome to Champion Wheel.com. We are website designed to bring you the latest news and information in the world of vehicle wheels. We cover topics and offer items like Custom Rims and Wheels, Car and Truck rims, Chrome Wheels and Spinning Rims and a whole lot more.

Like a new pair of shoes flatters an outfit, new wheels can compliment any car, new or old. Most people wouldn’t wear sneakers with a crisp suit, and similarly people with nice cars keep their wheel rims looking nice and many car owners get custom wheels to truly give their ride personality. Most vehicles come with very cheap wheels, the only styling is done with a hubcap. For anyone who really loves their vehicle aftermarket wheels are one of the first parts that is changed and upgraded.

Not all car wheels are created equal. Some have distinct advantages and disadvantages. Steel wheels are the most common because they are strong and cheap to manufacture. They can be painted or given a chrome finish for a bright shine but the biggest problem they have is corrosion. The finish can easily get pitted by road debris, brake dust and water which encourage rust and can ruin any finish and eventually compromise the strength of the rim. Chrome wheels should be cleaned weekly with a mild cleaner to keep them looking their best and lengthening their life.

Steel composite rims are made from two pieces, a steel rim and cast aluminum center. This improves the strength of the wheel and allows for interesting and unique styling on the inside of the wheel for much less cost than cast aluminum and forged wheels. Cast aluminum wheels are some of the most popular aftermarket wheels. They can be made into many different styles, finishes and sizes and are much lighter than steel while still remaining fairly inexpensive.

Alloy wheels are made from a mixture of metals, mostly aluminum or magnesium. They can be made to withstand high loads which are important for truck wheels and busses, as well as for racing cars. Racing wheels are often magnesium alloys for incredibly light weight, increased diameter and prettiness. Often called “mags” they are a popular reference to the recent hip hop culture addition of unique large shiny wheels. Some of the hottest designs are “spinners” that keep spinning when the car is stopped, or can be locked into place giving the appearance that the wheels are not moving when they are. The moon walk for cars in a way.

Wheel designs are becoming more and more interesting everyday. There are now wheels that have built in LED lights that are connected to a program that calculates the rotation of the wheel and can display a full color picture right on the wheels surface. It can show any picture, from dollar signs, “call me ”messages, photographs, the American flag, or literally any image imaginable. You are not limited to one image either, each wheel can display different pictures and rotate from picture to picture from a large database ensuring that the images never get old. These wheels come in a variety of sizes including the ever popular 20 inch wheels, but you probably won’t find any discount wheels with features like these. Keeping the wheels clean, no matter what type of material it is made from, will extend the life of the rim and keep it looking great for years.
