What are my options for steel wheel display?
Steel is the most basic type of wheel, and it is still a remarkably popular one. Steel has the downside of being a rather dull and unattractive metal when finished, as well as being susceptible to discoloration from brake dust or excessive heat. The most common way to avoid an unsightly steel wheel is to cover it with hubcaps; these inexpensive plastic covers mimic the styling of alloy wheels at a fraction of the cost. Another, more expensive option is to buy painted steel wheels. When you see black, red, or other exotically colored wheels, they are usually painted steel.
