just remember aluminum shatters and you can beat on a steel rim forever when you bent an alumium rim it wont hammer out like steel
what does that mean? you run aluminums? that doesnt really explain much glen.
i thaught that alcoa is the way to go. even after the lug nut holes wallooed out and the studs sheared off and the wheel went flying off the truck coming home from wheeling. to me it's a toss up.
Aluminum brakes steel bendsI've had the same four Aluminum rims for over 10 years. I've seen more damaged steel rims than aluminum. I will always buy aluminum unless my pocket book tells me other wise.This only my opinion.If you are knocking your rims against rock often, you may be running to low of a tire pressure. My trucks weights about 4300lbs fully loaded and I run at 12lbs on a 15"x8"x3.5"bs rim and 37"s. Then again you may also have a rim that is to wide for your tire.
here is one of my rims bent.... its aluminum
