1. What Are Alloy Wheels?

Alloy wheels are made from a blend of aluminium and other light metals. This makes them lighter and often more stylish than steel wheels.

Key Benefits of Alloy Wheels:

• Lightweight: Improves handling, acceleration, and fuel efficiency.

• Better Heat Dissipation: Reduces the risk of brake fade during heavy braking.

• Stylish Design Options: Available in multiple finishes and designs to upgrade the look of your vehicle

• Corrosion-Resistant: Less prone to rust compared to steel wheels.

What Are Steel Wheels (Sunraysia Wheels)?

Steel wheels are made from pressed and welded steel, making them strong, durable, and budget-friendly.

Key Benefits of Steel Wheels:

• Strength & Durability: Ideal for heavy-duty use, off-roading, and commercial vehicles.

• Cost-Effective: Cheaper to buy and replace compared to alloys.

•  Easier to Repair: Can often be hammered back into shape if bent.

• Perfect for Off-Road: Their toughness makes them popular among 4x4 owners.

Which Should You Choose?

• Choose Alloy Wheels if you value appearance, improved handling, and performance.

• Choose Steel Wheels if you need a tough, practical, and cost-effective solution for work vehicles or off-road adventures.
