What about wheel damage? Don't wait for scrapping to regret it!
The wheel hub is in a relatively grounded part of the vehicle and often causes various degrees of damage due to external factors. Common damages on the wheel hub are: surface scratches, edge scratches, edge chips, etc. .....
Do not underestimate these marks, if not treated in time, it will not only affect the aesthetic degree of the vehicle, but also may cause safety hazards of driving.
jwheel everyone summarizes the possible adverse effects of common wheel damage.
Wheel surface and edge scratches
The wheels are located underneath the car, so parking, reversing into the garage, or even a small stone raised on the road may cause scratches to the surface of the wheels.
If the scratches are small and not deep, they can be left alone, but if the surface is left with deep scratches, you will need to repair them in time.
If the surface is badly scratched, the protective varnish layer will be damaged and the aluminium alloy in the wheel will be oxidised.
Especially at the edges of the wheel, if there are deep scratches and the edges are corroded, a long period of time without treatment will lead to the combination of the wheel and the tyre becoming less and less tight, resulting in slow air leakage from the wheel and a certain safety hazard on long road trips.
Wheel surface corrosion
Wheel corrosion is related to the wheel surface process. Generally speaking, water plated wheels are the most prone to corrosion, and if it is not a very serious case, it is difficult to see the degree of corrosion of the wheel by appearance alone, as it is corroded from the inside out. Some high-end cars, such as Bentleys and Rolls-Royces, are equipped with water plated wheels, and over time you can see signs of corrosion on the wheels from the inside out.
Therefore, after a certain amount of corrosion has occurred, it is important to replace the wheel with a more corrosion resistant one.
Deformed and cracked wheels
Wheel deformation
Wheel deformation is generally divided into inner deformation, outer deformation and deformation of the wheel spokes.
As long as the spokes are not deformed and cracked, the safety of the wheel will not be affected.
If the wheel spokes are deformed and cracked, don't hesitate to buy new wheels. A deformed wheel separated from the outside of the tyre is very dangerous at high speeds! Deformed wheel edges are basically the result of crossing potholes, speed bumps or driving too fast when road conditions are poor, so remind your friends to drive with speed control and to slow down in special road conditions.
Cracked wheels
Cracked wheels generally have the following causes.
①Wheels with explosion-proof tyres: As the walls of explosion-proof tyres are hard, the cushioning force is relatively weak, and when the tyre is hit strongly, the force on the tyre will be transferred directly to the wheel hub, so it will easily lead to cracking.
②Large wheels: As the flat ratio of large wheels is lower, the cushioning force of the tyre is not sufficient. By the same token, when the tyre is hit by an external force, the external force will also be transferred to the wheel, thus leading to cracking.
In summary
Wheel maintenance is not a difficult task. Car owners should develop good driving habits, and if they find serious wheel problems, they must replace the wheel with a new one in time. When choosing a wheel, they must choose a wheel product of good quality and quality.

Jwheel, as an professional wheel manufacturer, concentrates in R&D and manufacturing of aluminum alloy wheels, including casting wheels, forging wheels and flow-form wheels. The products of it have passed the certifications of SEI、SEMA,VIA, JWL, JWL-T, TUV and so on. Since establishment, Jwheel has been developing steadily, with rich experience of designing and producing aluminum alloy wheels. It has earned the appreciation of both domestic market and foreign market with its high technology, good quality and customer service. It provided OEM service to many international brands like Vossen, OE Wheel, TSW, Rays, ProLine, Oxygen, AUTEC, etc., and it also provide ODM service, that is, for producing a new wheel, you can just provide a sketch, drawing or picture, and then Jwheel will finish the rest parts. By the way, the MOQ of forging wheels is four. (For more information, just go to the website: https://www.jjjwheel.com)
