Custom wheels are wheel rims and tires that can be utilized to style different kinds of vehicles. There are many various types of custom wheels for everyday cars, as well as motorcycles and trucks. Custom rims could be a stylish addition to a vehicle's appearance, irrespective of whether the rims are spinning, have an alloy, chrome or painted appearance.

While replica rims are those that have been modeled based on original factory rims, classic car rims are used by car enthusiasts to give older, antique cars their original look.

Semi truck rims are usually made of aluminum or steel and made extra strong to be able to withstand the weight of truck loads and the wear and tear of long hauls.

Steel wheels are heated to over 2000 degrees to mold the carbon billets that are hit by forging hammers. They are able to sustain the stress of long hauls better than other types of truck rims.

Today, the types of rims available are light alloy and pressed steel custom wheels which dispel heat from driving, and increase economical gas mileage.

Custom wheels are available in a wide variety of styles and shapes, from chrome, alloy, aluminum, spinning, titanium to wire wheels. You can also get wheel finishes for aftermarket racing rims which range from chrome, polished, aluminum, powder coated, brushed and even gold plated.
