Read More »Motorcycle Wheels
Motorcycle wheels really are no different from your typical OE 2005 Mercury Mountaineer rims that come on the 2005 Mercury Mountaineer… obviously. They are usually made with steel spokes & an aluminum hub. Sometimes they even have like a magnesium-type cast material or a machined finish.

Read More »OEM Wheel Hardware?
I have no idea about you, but when I think of hardware; I just think of the wood, tools, & stuff that you get at places like Home Depot or Lowe’s… too bad that’s not the hardware that we’re talking about here. The equipment & tools that attach the wheel to your car is overlooked […]
Read More »Factory Steel Wheels on Trains?
Whenever I go to San Diego, I always take the train; & I always wonder why they use steel wheels instead of the regular alloy rims & tires. When I did my “research”, I discovered that they used steel wheels to lessen rolling friction. Say you’re driving on the freeway, only 25% of the engine’s […]

Do you know what valve stems are? I didn’t either until I researched it on the Internet. The definition that I’d give you would be: a device that allows air in to inflate something, but neglects to let any air out from your tires on your 2005 GMC Yukon rims. Easy, right? Well, that’s basically all […]
Read More »Cruise Control & your OEM Wheels

Read More »Chrome Plating for my Factory Original Wheels ?
I pretty much had no idea what chrome plating was, until I did some research & came up with this: chrome plating & chromium plating are the same; it’s just that some people prefer to say the “shorter” version. Even though they mean the same, it does not necessarily mean that all chrome plating is […]
