What Type Of Wheels Should I Buy?

1.Steel Wheels VS. Alloy Wheels

Steel Wheels

Pros: Cheapest And Most Durable

Excellent In Winter Conditions.

Ideal For Heavy+Hardworking Vehicles

Cons: Can Put Strain On Suspension Systems

Weight Makes Acceleration More Difficult

Not The Most Aesthetically Pleasing

ALLOY Wheels

Pros: Excellent Fuel Economy

          Lightweight;Optimal Acceleration + Handling

          Stylish And Trend Forward Designs

Cons: Can Crack More Easily Than Steel

           More Expensive/Cost-effective

Tips: if you want beauty and performance, you buy alloy wheels, and if you want tough, inexpensive, ugly workhorses, you buy steel wheels.

2.Cast VS. Forged

Cast: Made By Pouring Molten Aluminum Into A Mold That’s Shaped Like The Wheel It Will Ultimately Be.

Forged: A Solid Block Of Billet Aluminum Is Shaped Into The Wheel Form, Pressurized For Added Strength, And Machine Cut Into The Final Wheel Design.

Tips: Cast Wheels are cheaper than forged wheels, but the weight of casts is heavier than forged wheel.

3.One-Piece VS. Two-Piece VS. Three-Piece

One-Piece: Cast Wheels Are All One Piece

Manufactured quickly

Two-Piece: Generally Make Up Of Centerpiece With Spokes And The Rims.

More Flexible; Typically Forged

Three-Piece: Centerpiece And Two Separate Rim Halves

Less Common; Custom-Built

Ideal For Sport Cars

Tips：All cast wheels are manufactured in a single piece of metal, or monoblock, so they are referred to as 1-piece wheels. Because of their added strength forged wheels can be manufactured as 1-piece, 2-piece, or 3-piece wheels.So this answer is that you want cast wheels or forged wheels.
