Is it illegal to change the color of original car wheels?
1 Answers
Changing the color of original car wheels is not illegal. Modifying the color and style of motor vehicle wheels is considered a legal action, allowing normal driving without affecting annual inspections. Below are some precautions regarding wheel modifications: 1. Pay attention to the paint: Unscrupulous merchants may refurbish old parts through simple processes such as scraping, disassembling, assembling, loading, and painting, then sell them as "qualified products." The surface paint may peel off, revealing old paint underneath. 2. Pay attention to the process: Inferior products may look good on the outside, but due to poor manufacturing processes, they are prone to cracks, sand holes, slag inclusions, burrs, or protrusions. If the cylinder head is deformed under pressure, purchasing substandard car steel rims can easily lead to sealing burn-out during use, causing leaks of air, oil, or water.
