Featherweight Plastic Sport Rims
July 24, 2007 | Leave a Comment
Have you ever seen a plastic wheel before? The plastic wheel or we normally call them sport rims here in Malaysia, are developed now in Germany.
The first thing car enthusiasts will do with their car is to change their stock wheels. They normally change them to better, bigger and lighter alloy rims. With the development of the plastic rims, car enthusiasts now have another option. Unfortunately the rims are not yet approved due to lack of suitable testing methods.
