What is the size of the Magotan's wheel rims?
1 Answers
The wheel rim size of the Magotan is 16 inches. The wheel rim is the central part of the wheel where the axle is installed, commonly referred to as the 'rim' or 'steel rim'. Wheel rims are prone to accumulating dirt, and if not cleaned for a long time, they may corrode and deform, leading to potential safety hazards. Wheel rims are divided into steel rims and alloy rims, with the differences as follows: 1. The main advantage of steel rims is their simple manufacturing process (usually using casting techniques, whereas alloy rims are typically produced using low-pressure casting), relatively lower cost, and strong resistance to metal fatigue. 2. Steel rims are heavier (the same rim made of steel is much heavier than one made of aluminum alloy), have greater inertial resistance, poorer heat dissipation, and are prone to rust. 3. Alloy rims are lighter in weight, have smaller inertial resistance, higher manufacturing precision, and less deformation at high speeds, which helps improve the vehicle's straight-line driving performance, reduces tire rolling resistance, and consequently decreases fuel consumption. 4. The thermal conductivity of alloy materials is about three times that of steel, providing better heat dissipation, which can have a positive effect on the vehicle's braking system, tires, and the thermal attenuation of the braking system.
