Wheel Types We Carry
Every driver has different needs and preferences. We stock a full range of wheel types so you can find exactly what works for your vehicle and your budget.
Alloy Wheels
Lightweight performance with superior heat dissipation
Alloy wheels are manufactured from a blend of aluminum and other metals, making them significantly lighter than traditional steel options. This reduced weight translates directly into improved acceleration, braking, and fuel efficiency. One of the biggest advantages of alloy wheels is their ability to dissipate heat more effectively. If you regularly drive through mountainous terrain or spend time in heavy stop-and-go traffic, alloy wheels help keep your brakes cooler and performing at their best. They also offer a wide range of designs, so you can find a style that perfectly matches your vehicle's personality.
Steel Wheels
Rugged durability at an affordable price
Steel wheels have been the workhorse of the automotive world for decades, and for good reason. They are built tough enough to handle rough road conditions, potholes, and harsh weather without cracking or bending easily. Steel wheels are generally the most budget-friendly option, making them an excellent choice for everyday drivers, work trucks, and vehicles that see heavy-duty use. If you need a reliable set of wheels that can take a beating and keep rolling, steel is the way to go. Many drivers also keep a dedicated set of steel wheels for winter tires.
Plus-Size Rims
Enhanced grip and sharper steering response
Plus-size rims feature a larger diameter than your vehicle's factory wheels, paired with lower-profile tires to maintain the same overall tire diameter. The result is a noticeably wider contact patch with the road, which improves cornering grip and steering precision. Drivers who upgrade to plus-size rims often report that their vehicle feels more planted and responsive through turns. Beyond the performance benefits, larger rims give your car, truck, or SUV a more aggressive, modern stance that turns heads wherever you go.
Choosing the Right Wheels
Picking the right set of wheels involves more than just looks. Here are the key factors our team considers when helping you make the best decision for your vehicle.
Alloy for Heat Management
If you drive in mountain areas or frequently encounter stop-and-go traffic, alloy wheels are the recommended choice. Their superior heat conductivity helps your brakes cool faster, reducing brake fade and extending the life of your brake components.
Diameter and Handling
Moving up to a larger rim diameter improves your steering response and road grip. The lower-profile tire that accompanies a plus-size rim gives you more direct feedback from the road surface, making your vehicle feel more connected and confident in corners.
Weight Matters
The weight of your wheels has a direct impact on how your vehicle handles. Lighter rims improve acceleration, braking distance, and overall agility. Heavier steel rims on smaller cars can actually decrease performance and fuel economy, so it is important to match the right wheel weight to your vehicle's size and intended use.
