Alloy wheels. Style and performance for every car
Alloy wheels, also called alloys or light-metal rims, are the most popular rim choice on the market. Lighter than steel wheels, better looking in design and with clear advantages for handling and fuel consumption. Whether you drive a passenger car, pickup, SUV or van, you will find the right alloy wheel at Statusfälgar. Enter your registration number and we will show you straight away which alloy wheels fit your vehicle.
What are alloy wheels?
Alloy wheels are rims made from an aluminium alloy, a lighter and more malleable material than steel. That makes it possible to create rims in a wide spectrum of designs and finishes without compromising on strength. The lighter weight reduces unsprung weight, which improves handling, braking performance and fuel consumption – noticeable in everyday driving and particularly on sportier cars.
The advantages of alloy wheels
Alloy wheels combine function with appearance in a way steel wheels cannot match. The lighter construction improves steering response and braking performance and reduces fuel consumption. The wide range of designs, sizes and finishes makes it possible to find a rim that suits your car's character and your personal style exactly. Alloy wheels are also more corrosion-resistant than steel wheels, which makes them easier to keep clean and looking good over time.
Alloy wheels for passenger cars
For the passenger car owner, alloy wheels are the obvious choice for the summer season. The lighter construction improves how the car feels to drive and gives it an entirely different appearance. We have alloy wheels for passenger cars in every popular dimension from 14 to 22 inches in a wide range of finishes: bright silver, matt black, anthracite, gun metal and more. Whether you drive a Volvo, BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Toyota or Volkswagen, you will find the right alloy wheel with us.
Alloy wheels for pickup
Alloy wheels for a pickup combine function with an appearance that matches the vehicle's character. The lighter construction reduces unsprung weight and improves handling and fuel consumption, which is all the more noticeable on a heavy pickup. We have alloy wheels for the Dodge Ram, Ford Ranger, Silverado, F-150, Ram 1500, Nissan Navara and Volkswagen Amarok in a wide range of designs and finishes, from clean everyday wheels to aggressive off-road models.
Alloy wheels for SUVs
The SUV owner who wants to combine performance with appearance will find a wide range of alloy wheels with us. The right rim in the right size transforms the whole character of the vehicle and improves the handling into the bargain. We have alloy wheels for every popular SUV model on the Swedish market in sizes from 17 to 22 inches.
Alloy wheels for vans
Alloy wheels are a sensible choice for van owners who cover long distances and want to keep fuel consumption down. The lighter construction reduces unsprung weight, which shows in fuel economy over time and all the more so on a vehicle covering high mileage. Always check that the rim's load capacity meets the van's requirements. We offer alloy wheels for the Mercedes Sprinter, Volkswagen Transporter, Ford Transit Custom and Volkswagen Caddy.
Designs and finishes
Alloy wheels come in an almost endless range of designs and finishes. At Statusfälgar you will find everything from classic spokes and modern multi-spoke wheels to aggressive multispoke models in matt black, anthracite, gun metal, bronze or polished silver. Whether you prefer a clean, modern look or a more aggressive off-road profile, there is an alloy wheel to suit your car and your personality.
The difference between alloy wheels and steel wheels
Alloy wheels and steel wheels have different qualities that suit different needs. Alloy wheels are lighter, which improves handling and fuel consumption, but cost more and are more vulnerable to hard impacts. Steel wheels are heavier but more rugged and better value, and are perfect for winter use. Most car owners choose alloy wheels for summer for better performance and appearance, and steel wheels for winter for durability and economy.
