What are car alloy wheels?
Car alloy wheels, or “rims” as they’re also known, are wheels made from an alloy of magnesium and aluminium (sometimes both). They’re lighter, better at conducting heat, and will give your Citroën a more unique, personal sense of style. Most of our customers choose from our range of genuine Citroën alloy wheels for a cosmetic upgrade; it’s all about those little extra touches that make your Citroën a reflection of who you are.
However there are a few reasons as to why an alloy wheel upgrade might be beneficial for your Citroën:
- Lighter alloy wheels can improve handling by reducing un-sprung mass and improving grip on roads.
- Alloy wheels are better at conducting heat and this can help to dissipate the heat released from braking (particularly in more demanding conditions) and so reduces the chance of brake failure due to overheating.
