Just to extend this pointless thread further ... 'Alloy' means that they're using an alloy that's specific to the purpose (i.e. wheels). The implication is that a metallurgist thought about the specific alloys needed for the part and that it's not a standard mix. -- Kili.io - OpenStack for Africa: https://angel.co/kili-io Musings: https://twitter.com/varud About Adam: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson On Mon, Aug 19, 2013 at 4:47 PM, ndungu stephen <ndungustephen@gmail.com>wrote:
I am confused by the term "Alloy rims"
Steel is an alloy.
Surely, no sane manufacturer would use 'Cast Iron' or 'Pig Iron' to make rims would they ?
