How do they differ? In actuality, there's dinky or no incompatibility between a wheel and a rim, though most car customizers ("tuners") would never be caught out calling their rollers "wheels." For them, the "rim" is the thing. And other than some minor technical specifications called for when you're dealing with truck wheels, the two words for rolling stock are pretty much interchangeable.

Steel for years. In the old days, the only metal suitable for use on an Suv or truck was steel. It had the benefit of being rugged, durable and relatively cheap to make and maintain, as it was pretty defiant to rust buildup. But it was a bit heavy, though that's not as important in truck wheels and rims as it is on automobile wheels or rims.

Aluminum moved up. After some time, wheel and rim makers began to realize that aluminum metal alloy could be a fine substitute, especially when it came to fashioning a memorable look, full of fine colors and longevity at least equal to old-style steel. Plus, aluminum can be lighter, though (again) that's not too much of a notice to the median Suv or truck owner.

Never let up on the grip. Xd Series wheels and rims are purpose made, with any whole of lugs required, depending on the size of the wheel or rim. Beginning out in 15 inch styles, with 5 or 6 lugs, they can run all the way up to 24 inchers. These normally take a 7 or 8 lug pattern set-up.

Look good while finding muddy. The Kmc Wheel Company's Xd Series lineup can make even the muddiest and dirtiest of off-road vehicles give off a bit of style and rugged good looks. And lifted or raised trucks benefit even more, due to the specific models offered for use on those high-riding machines. And dualie owners out there won't feel left out, either, inspecting a few of the good-looking wheels and rims Xd has made ready for their trucks.
