Mercedes Wheels

Wheels – you can’t make it without them. Light or heavy, expensive or cheap – we usually just pick some without thinking about too many options. However if we do think about it – especially about the physics involved in the driving experience – the wheels are a very important part of the vehicle.
In this article I will tell you more about the Mercedes wheels, the different models that are available on the market and some key benefits of some of them.
Alloy Replica Wheels are one option available to the customer today. They are very durable and they can add some nice style to your car. It’s interesting to say that the rim is cold-formed. I will explain more about this process.
This is a process of metalworking which involves no heat. The metal doesn’t need to be heated in order for a transformation to occur. It is important however that the actual shaping of the metal happens in a temperature that is below its recrystallization temperature or in other words – shaping happens after the metal is completely solid.
This process is only suitable for large production and in the case of wheels the process delivers great results. The rim of the wheel needs to be strong due to the high load it needs to sustain.
