Are the 750 tire and 825 tire steel rims the same?
1 Answers
Both the 750 tire and 825 tire steel rims are tube-type rims with a nominal diameter of 20 inches, but they differ in rim width. Below is relevant information about automotive steel rims: 1. Introduction: Steel rims, also known as wheel hubs, are the rotating central part of a tire's inner contour connected by pillars to the wheel core—the metal component mounted on the axle that supports the tire. They are alternatively called rims, steel wheels, or wheel discs. Wheel hubs come in various types based on diameter, width, manufacturing method, and material. 2. Types: Wheel hubs are also referred to as rims. Depending on the characteristics and requirements of different vehicle models, the surface treatment processes for rims vary, mainly categorized into painting and plating. For standard vehicle models, rim aesthetics are less prioritized, with good heat dissipation being a fundamental requirement. The process typically involves painting—spraying followed by baking—which is cost-effective, offers vibrant colors, and ensures long-lasting durability. Even when a vehicle is scrapped, the rim's color remains unchanged. Many mass-market vehicles use painted rims. Trendy, dynamic colored rims also employ painting technology, offering moderate pricing and a full range of specifications. Plated rims are further divided into silver plating, water plating, and pure plating types.
