Everything is relative, and it cannot be said that aluminum alloy and iron rims are the best. After comparison, it will be found that aluminum alloy wheels are indeed more dominant.
Iron wheels and aluminum alloy wheels, which one is better?
Everything is relative, and it cannot be said that aluminum alloy and iron rims are the best. After comparison, it will be found that aluminum alloy wheels are indeed more dominant.
Let's take a look at the comparison data compiled:
First of ALL, what are the advantages of iron rims?
Sturdy, durable, and cheap are its only advantages.
The most important thing is his quality of tenacity. Iron wheels have good tenacity but poor hardness, while aluminum alloy wheels have good hardness but poor tenacity. Due to the material and process of manufacture, the stability of the iron wheel is not good at high speed, but the stability of the aluminum wheel is very good at high speed, and the acceleration and heat dissipation of the aluminum alloy wheel are also better.
Heavy trucks, off-road vehicles, and military vehicles will choose iron rims. Because trucks are generally overloaded, if aluminum alloy wheels are used, the consequences are very serious. Military vehicles like off-road vehicles (the aluminum alloy wheels of high-end off-road vehicles are forged) and military vehicles can be easily repaired if they are deformed by the impact force when driving on mountain roads. It will not be scrapped directly like aluminum alloy wheels.
The advantages of aluminum alloy wheels are more. What's more, the emergence of new technologies has made the production process of aluminum alloys more perfect. Like what space aluminum alloy is, the aluminum alloy deck of an aircraft carrier. Stress resistance is not a good thing or not.
The advantages of aluminum alloy wheels are as follows:
1. Fuel saving
Aluminum alloy rims are lighter in mass, just like a person's shoes. Wearing iron shoes is definitely more strenuous than walking in cloth shoes.
2. Beautiful
You look at the current wheel styles: what five-spoke, ten-spoke, sixteen-spoke. Anyway, the styles are more artistic than the other.
3. Good heat dissipation
The heat dissipation of pure aluminum is not as good as that of iron, but aluminum alloy is doped with many other metals. So the heat dissipation is better than the iron hub. Therefore, the service life of the tire is increased and the chance of a tire blowout is reduced.
4. Good roundness
Simply put, it has high precision, smooth operation, and no steering wheel shake. very round very round~~~
5. Increase engine life
The lighter the wheels, the better the acceleration. Reduce engine loss and increase engine life.
