Do auto manufacturers offer chrome versions of their wheels?
Some do. But for the dollars invested, car manufacturers can’t match the quality of aftermarket rims, so many don’t even try. Q. What is unsprung weight and how does it affect my car. Every time you hit a bump, the wheel assembly accelerates upwards, decelerates to a stop, then accelerates downward till it reaches equilibrium. If the wheel can’t accelerate fast enough, shock is transmitted to the body of your car, which upsets your car’s balance. Lighter wheels and tires keep your unsprung weight to a minimum, improving how your car handles.
