Rally Wheels for Chevy

Outfit Your Chevy With Rally Wheels

Whether you actually race your Chevrolet or just want to make your car or truck look like its ready to rev up its engine and fly down a track, putting in rally wheels could be a key factor. Rally wheels have a distinctive look and are designed to withstand high speeds and rough roads. Adding a set from eBay could be what sets your vehicle apart.

These types of wheels, or rims, can come in a variety of sizes. On eBay, you will find many types of models, and you can use the diameter and width to help determine whether one product would fit your vehicle and the tires you want to use. Considerations include:

• Diameter: Most wheels range in size from 14 inches to 18 inches. In certain conditions, larger wheels may be more suited toward high-speed conditions, and smaller ones provide a firmer ride.
• Width: Widths could be anywhere from 4 inches to 10 inches. In general, the wider the wheel, the faster the steering response. This is because theres less flexibility in the sidewalls of tires as you go up in width, so everything can become more responsive. At the same time, this responsiveness can lead to a bumpier ride for the passengers. The trade-off depends on what type of ride you prefer.

Many of these car and truck rims come with a chrome or silver powder-coated finish. Whether you select a matte or a shiny finish depends on your preferences. Some drivers looking for rally wheels own classic cars and trucks and want the type of rim that would match the original look of the vehicle.

There may be some variety in whats available on eBay. You could have a wheel with a 5 x 4-1/2 bolt pattern or one with a 5 x 4-3/4 pattern. The "5" in these patterns indicates five lugs, and the "4-1/2" or "4-3/4" tells you the diameter of the circle formed by all of the lugs. This measurement is taken from the center of the wheel lugs.

When replacing your rims, you need to use the same bolt pattern as what your vehicle has to ensure proper attachment. Whether you are using new tires or more affordable preowned options found on eBay, always check your manufacturer?s guide for sizing help.
