Today, the main development trends in the automotive wheels industry centre on producing larger, brighter and cheaper wheels. From a style point of view, although certain finishes are typically applied to steel wheels, it's hard to ignore the sheer weight compared to alloy. In fact, for some time aluminium wheel penetration in Western Europe and North America has increased due to its weight efficiencies and favourable design characteristics. Aluminium is perceived as a key raw material to help vehicle makers produce more fuel-efficient, lighter and recyclable re·cy·cle tr.v. re·cy·cled, re·cy·cling, re·cy·cles 1.

However, steel wheels are said to be making a comeback as carmakers realise they can save hundreds of dollars per vehicle without sacrifice to quality or performance. Ford, DaimlerChrysler, General Motors and among those switching to steel wheels thanks to the development of new high-strength steels and improved design and simulation technology. So are steel wheels really making a comeback? Is it a myth that consumers prefer aluminium wheels to styled steel wheels? This report addresses these issues as well as a number of topics, including: Steel wheel makers are faced with the challenge of using styled steel wheels to reduce weight and cost and yet increase profitability. How have they achieved it? --To what extent are imports from the emerging markets posing a threat to alloy wheel Alloy wheels are automobile wheels which are made from aluminum or magnesium metal alloy. Alloy wheels differ from normal steel wheels, because of their lighter weight, which improves performance. makers? --What are the similarities or differences between North American North American named after North America. North American blastomycosis see North American blastomycosis. North American cattle tick see boophilusannulatus. and European wheel markets? --Who leads the European steel wheel market? --Just how fast will the alloy wheel market grow in North America over the next few years? --While wheel size may matter most in terms of design, style ranks a close second. What are the emerging trends in terms of cladding The plastic or glass sheath that is fused to and surrounds the core of an optical fiber. The cladding's mirror-like coating keeps the light waves reflected inside the core. The cladding is covered with a protective outer jacket. See fiber optics glossary. and finishes? --To what extent can high strength steels and new designs that offer large ventilation openings mimic the thin-spoke appearance of some alloy wheels? --How has simulation software Simulation software is based on the process of imitating a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually running the program. improved over the last few years? --What future has magnesium magnesium (măgnē`zēəm, –zhəm), metallic chemical element; symbol Mg; at. no. 12; at. wt. 24.305; m.p. about 648.8°C;; b.p. about 1,090°C;; sp. gr. 1.738 at 20°C;; valence +2. ? --How much further can wheel design go?
