Our offer includes a wide range of: used rims, rims after renovation, as well as original OEM rims for the most popular car models, including BMW , MINI , Mercedes, Audi , Volkswagen and others, that will meet even the most demanding expectations. With us, you'll learn everything you need to know about the different types of rims, their technical specifications, and the advantages of each model. Discover the world of car rims with us and see how much they can make a difference in your daily journey!
Types of rims
Car rims can be divided into several basic types: aluminum, steel, aluminum-steel, and sports . Each of them has different properties, for example, aluminum rims are 20-30% lighter than steel rims, which directly affects acceleration, braking, and fuel consumption. Additionally, properly selected rims, based on OEM specifications (e.g., BMW E90 rim, Audi A5 8T rim), provide full compatibility with the braking and suspension system.
Table of sample rims and their parameters
Rim type | Diameter | Width | Number of holes | Spacing | Material | Sample models |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Aluminum rim | 17" | 7.5" | 5 | 112 mm | Aluminum | BMW E90, Audi A6 C6 |
Steel rim | 16" | 6.5" | 5 | 112 mm | Steel | Mercedes W204, VW Golf |
Iveco 16 rim | 16" | 6.0" | 5 | 130 mm | Steel | Iveco Daily |
Choosing the perfect rims for your car
Choosing the right rims is a crucial step in improving your vehicle's appearance and performance. Rims not only impact aesthetics but also have a direct impact on driving safety. Therefore, it's important to carefully consider your choice. The first step is determining the right rim size for your car. Consider the diameter (e.g., 17 inches) and rim width . Other technical parameters, such as the number of mounting holes (e.g., 5 x 112) and their spacing in millimeters, are also important. Next, you need to decide what material your new rims will be made from. The most popular options are aluminum and alloy steel . Aluminum rims are lighter and often more aesthetically pleasing, which can improve vehicle performance and reduce fuel consumption. Steel rims, on the other hand, are more durable and less expensive. Another factor is the manufacturer and brand of the car rims – reputable manufacturers guarantee the high quality of their models. It's worth paying attention to other users' reviews and quality certificates available in the product description. Price also plays a significant role in the rim selection process. Products on the market come in various price ranges – from several hundred złoty per unit to models costing several thousand złoty for a set of four.
- Matching the vehicle model – At Global Parts you will find rims that perfectly fit BMW , MINI , Mercedes, Audi , Volkswagen and others .
- Technical condition – Used rims should be free of cracks, deep scratches and excessive corrosion.
- Material – Choose steel rims for everyday use or aluminum rims for better looks and performance.
- Rim size – Check compliance with the vehicle's technical specifications to avoid suspension and handling problems.
- Offset (ET) and rim width – The correct offset ensures proper fitment to the suspension and braking system. Car parts, such as rims, must be precisely selected to ensure maximum performance and safety. Rims must be matched not only in diameter and width, but also in ET (offset) and center bore diameter. Improper offset can lead to handling issues and wear on suspension components. It's also worth using OEM numbers, such as a BMW E36 rim or an Iveco 16-inch rim, to ensure a perfect fit and full compatibility with ABS and tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS).
How to take care of rims?
- Regular washing – Remove dirt and road salt to prevent corrosion and paint damage.
- Tire pressure check – Proper pressure reduces the load on the rims and extends their life.
- Wheel Balancing – Balance your rims regularly to avoid vibration and uneven tire wear.
- Damage Protection – Avoid hitting curbs and potholes abruptly.
- Repair or replacement on time – In case of damage, choose car parts that will ensure full functionality of the wheels. Additionally, when installing aluminum rims, it's recommended to use a torque of 100–120 Nm, while for steel rims, 120–140 Nm is recommended, ensuring safety and minimizing the risk of deformation. It's also worth paying attention to the valve type – BMW E90 and Audi A6 C6 rims often require metal valves compatible with TPMS sensors.
Used or refurbished – which rims to choose?
Each type of rim has its advantages and disadvantages . Used rims can be more economical. Buying such wheels can save you a lot of money, but you should pay attention to their technical condition. Used models may show signs of wear but can still function well. Refurbished rims combine attractive appearance with an affordable price. Wheel refurbishment involves repairing any damage and renewing the paint or polishing the aluminum surface. This makes refurbished wheels look like new and costs less than brand new products straight from the store. Choose rims that suit your needs and budget: Want to save? Opt for used rims at great prices. If you're looking for higher quality and a modern design? Refurbished rims are an excellent choice. Don't wait – discover the perfect rims for your car today! After restoration, rims maintain full compliance with OEM numbers and factory parameters. For example, a restored BMW E36 rim retains the correct ET offset and center bore diameter. Additionally, rims can be powder-coated or polished, ensuring weather resistance and greater scratch resistance than factory versions.
