Can Car Wheel Hubs Be Repainted?

[Kelsey]

Car wheel hubs can be repainted. According to relevant traffic management regulations, there are no explicit rules regarding the color of wheel hubs, and the color of wheel hubs is not included in the 30% color change limit for the entire vehicle. Changing the color of wheel hubs will not affect road legality or annual inspections. The wheel hub is the rotating part of the tire's inner rim connected to the wheel center via spokes, and it is the metal component mounted on the axle that supports the tire. Methods for maintaining wheel hubs include: 1. If the vehicle is located in a humid area, the wheel hubs should be cleaned frequently to prevent salt corrosion on the aluminum surface; 2. When necessary, after thorough cleaning, wax can be applied to the wheel hubs to maintain their shine; 3. When the wheel hubs are at a high temperature, they should be allowed to cool naturally before cleaning. Using cold water for cleaning can damage the aluminum wheel hubs, cause brake disc deformation, and affect braking performance. Using cleaning agents on wheel hubs can trigger chemical reactions on the surface, leading to loss of shine.
