Can car wheel hubs be modified in color?
1 Answers
Car wheel hubs can be modified in color. There are no specific regulations regarding the color of wheel hubs in the relevant rules, and the color of wheel hubs is not included in the 30% color category of the entire vehicle. Therefore, changing the color of wheel hubs will not affect road legality or annual inspections. Wheel hubs refer to the central part of the wheel where the axle is installed, commonly known as the rim or steel ring. Wheel hubs are prone to accumulating dirt, and if not cleaned for a long time, they may corrode and deform, posing safety hazards. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the maintenance of wheel hubs. When a car is in motion, the tires and wheel hubs generate a significant amount of heat. If this heat accumulates on the wheel hubs, it can affect braking performance, leading to wear on the brakes, wheel hubs, and tires. Aluminum alloy wheel hubs can dissipate this heat into the air, helping to cool the tires and brakes and increasing the vehicle's safety factor.
