They were made for practicality, not looks. Today, rims are an expression of your individuality and style. A rim’s purpose is to connect your auto’s tire to the wheel.

Regardless of the color or model of rim you choose, you can rest assured that you are getting rims that have been stringently tested and found to be ultra safe.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com/American-Racing/" target="_blank">American Racing Wheels</a> are perhaps the most famous custom rims in the world. There is a reason for this. American Racing wheels are famous because the company was the first to design and manufacture custom wheels. True to their name, American Racing wheels was founded in 1956 by an enterprising drag racer and his engineer buddy in San Francisco. The two custom rim designers were trying to make a lighter, stronger wheel for racing that was tough and durable. What followed was the Torq Thrust, a legend in custom wheels and a style that is still manufactured today in varying sizes and finishes.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">With beautiful models like the Aero, the Marin, the Haze, the Rogue, and the Cartel, American Racing wheels demonstrate an extraordinary commitment to contemporary engineering and high performance standards as well as designs that speak to both the past and the future of racing wheels. In short, American Racing wheels delivers classics year after year, and this is a big reason why American Racing wheels are often the top sellers in the custom rims world year after year. Offering a fine range of sizes and finishes like chrome, anthracite, machined, black, and hyper silver, American Racing wheels goes that extra mile to ensure that its rims will maintain their performance and visual appeal long after you buy them.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">American Racing wheels also offer something few other rims can claim: classic styles that will fit well on almost any type of vehicle. While some custom wheels are defined by one or two types of styles like muscle cars, luxury cars, trucks, or classic cars, American Racing makes wheels that look and perform great on so many different styles and models that you can&#8217;t go wrong buying American Racing rims. In fact, American Racing wheels are so eclectic and such a great value that their enduring popularity is a sign of their enduring value, both in real terms and in perceived driving pleasure!</p>

<p><a href="http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com/custom-wheels-rims.html" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-199" title="AR6052_t" src="http://shiftways.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/AR6052_t.jpg" alt="AR6052_t" width="150" height="149" />Custom wheels</a> make a statement and represent the height of the coolness factor, regardless of what you drive. To be considered a serious player in the car collecting or racing game, you must have custom wheels. Custom wheels provide much more visual appeal, unique styling, and performance than stock cheap aluminum wheels. Most custom wheels are alloy wheels and are exceptionally well engineered for greater performance and durability. Custom wheels come in thousands of models and in many diameters, widths, and bolt patterns.</p>
<p>Whether you are a driver of a Toyota, a Ferrari, a Porsche, a Lexus, or a Dodge, custom wheels made by manufacturers such as American Racing, Dub, Boss, Status, Asanti, Lexani, TSW, KMC, Foose, XD Series, Ruff Racing, Cruiser Alloy, Limited, Element, and many others come in finishes ranging from chrome, silver, black, polished and hyper to machined, white, and gunmetal. There is practically no end to the possibilities when it comes to custom wheels styles and finishes. What is important for you is to find the right wheels for your budget that will fit on your car. To figure out the proper fitment, <a href="http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com" target="_blank">a good custom wheel shop</a> will research your vehicle make and model, as well as its year and then find the appropriate diameter, bolt pattern, and offset. This is why it is important to make sure to purchase custom wheels from a reputable dealer that offers these services, knowledgeable expertise, and that stands behind all of its various custom wheels.</p>
<p>What makes custom wheels so special is that they are a fashionable accessory and an important element in your car&#8217;s performance. Custom wheel and rim fanatics change their wheels and rims as often as some people change their shoe styles. They are that serious. Custom rims usually change models every year and offer a number of variables and style types. Some wheels come with center caps while others have none and leave their lugs exposed. Most custom wheels and rims offer lugs and locks to protect your wheels from theft. <a href="http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com/American-Racing/" target="_blank">American Racing</a> pioneered custom wheels for road and track in the 1950s with the Torq Thrust model that is still manufactured today.</p>
<p>Some people collect custom wheels like others collect jewelery or baseball cards. Whatever your obsession, nothing beats a set of new custom wheels for your ride. If you want to get the attention of the beautiful blonde next door, your neighbor, or your town, just roll down the street in a new set of custom chrome wheels and watch the heads turn!</p>

<p><a href="http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com/asanti-wheels-rims.html" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-190" title="asa-145c_t" src="http://shiftways.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/asa-145c_t.jpg" alt="asa-145c_t" width="150" height="150" /></a>The word &#8220;chrome&#8221; comes from chromium, a soft metal known is for its super shiny appearance when polished. Chromium is not strong enough to be cast solid which means that <a href="http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com/custom-wheels-rims.html" target="_blank">custom chrome wheels</a> are made with alloys encompassing aluminum and covered in a thin layer of chrome, giving them that unbeatable shine and allure that only comes with this special process. Chrome plating is brighter, richer, and more reflective than other polished metals, all of which contribute to its popularity and appeal as a custom wheel finish. To be a true lover of custom wheels,  chrome wheels are the only way to ride.</p>
<p>Chrome wheels made by custom wheel manufacturers like Status, Lexani, Asanti, Ruff Racing, American Racing, TSW, KMC, Boss, Dub, and Enkei, to name a few, provide your car with an exceptionally shiny and attractive wheel that stands out amid the drab stock wheels most people drive on. Nothing beats the shine and elegance of chrome wheels. Today, you can find chrome wheels in a wide range of diameters from 14 inches all the way up to 30 inches and in a number of widths. Some brands offer certain chrome wheels in staggered widths, enabling you to give your ride a more aggressive and hungrier look. For all of these reasons, chrome wheels usually cost a little more than gray wheels, silver wheels, black, wheels or machined wheels, all of which are painted and not plated with chromium.</p>
<p>Many wheels made by American Racing, Dale Earnhardt Jr, Petrol, and other brands always make at least one version of their models in chrome. Chrome wheels represent the most durable and the most eternal look of the custom wheels and rims world. Chrome rims offer a rare appeal beyond the simply functional and make for an unforgettably powerful head-turner. Chrome rims and wheels are to custom wheels what diamonds are to jewelery: Chrome wheels are a drivers best friend.</p>
<p>What about the durability of the chome wheel finish? Chrome wheels and rims are the most durable you can buy. If  you ever see chrome peeling from a wheel this is almost always due to a manufacturing defect in the plating process that fused the chrome onto the substrate. In other words, it rarely happens, another reason why chrome wheels are legendary in the <a href="http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com/custom-wheels-rims.html" target="_blank">custom wheels</a> world. Whether you own a Lamborghini, a Porsche, a BMW, a Dodge or a Honda, chrome custom wheels are second-to-none when it comes to strength and allure.</p>
