Wheels

When speaking with clients, they naturally tell us why they need to buy rims in the first place, which is totally understandable. Some buy to improve the appearance of their vehicle, and some purchase them to improve their high performance vehicles, whether it be for oz racing or off-road.

Whatever you decide, rest assure that we offer a complete wheel and tyre package range for you.

What's the difference between rims and wheels?

Many people use term 'wheel' as a 'rim' meaning the entire metal part to which the tyre is mounted because rim and wheel are usually cast or pressed from a single piece of metal. The main difference between car wheels and rims is that a rim is not the whole wheel but only a part of the wheel. The main job of car rims is to seal the tyre and protect the wheel whilst the wheel is the part that rotates in order to allow the vehicle or other equipment to start moving..

Although wheels and rims in Australia are interchangeably used, it is technically incorrect and there are clear differences in how it works and for what the tyre also offers. It’s important to understand this, in order to prevent any confusion when explaining your requirements during your visit to our wheel shop.

How much do wheels cost?

Wheels in Australia cost range depend widely for different cars. There are dealers who will charge you per aspect ratio while others will charge you depending on the diameter of the tyre. Many other online stores don’t include the pricing, in order to attract customers to buy, only leading to disappointment.

As a general rule of thumb, you should know that the smaller the wheels the lower the price. The larger rims from 18 inches to 22 inches will cost you more to mount tyres on them. The cost will also be high when you are purchasing these wheels. Larger tyres cost much more because they cost more to make and production time is longer. In addition, most of them are used on high-end cars.
