Understanding Your Alloy Wheels
What are alloy wheels?
Alloy wheels, also known as aluminium wheels, are wheels made from an alloy of aluminium and other metals. Alloy wheels are incredibly popular among vehicle owners and the automotive industry due to their lightweight, strength, and aesthetic appeal. Alloy wheels are a smart investment for any vehicle owner, which is why when problems are identified, repairs must be undertaken as soon as possible.

Many factors can impact cause damage, wear, tear and more to your alloy wheels. Here are some of the things that can cause alloy wheel damage…
- Potholes & Road Conditions
It should come as no surprise that potholes and UK road conditions are one of the main factors that cause damage to alloy wheels. With over a million potholes in the UK and other poor road conditions, our alloys are constantly battling against damaging surfaces.
- Improper Wheel Maintenance
Failing to maintain your vehicle’s tyre pressure, such as under or over-inflation can increase the risk of alloy wheel damage. What’s more, you could also face the risk of punctures and more – all of which are dangerous.
- Age & Wear
Unfortunately, ageing and wear can’t be stopped and as alloys age, their condition may deteriorate. This degradation could lead to cracks forming in your alloys. We recommend regularly inspecting your alloys for wear and tear.
