Q: Why do mag wheels bend or dent quite easily?
A: Mag wheels are made of aluminium which is a relatively soft and light material. In some cases, where rims are fitted with low profile tyres, the side wall thickness does not give enough cushioning effect as a large profile tyre would. In many modified vehicles that have lowered or modified suspensions, the springs can be very hard, adding pressure impact to the wheels when hitting a pothole.
Q: Can a diamond cut wheel be polished?
A: Yes it can, however this is not recommended, as once polished, the diamond face finish can not be achieved again.
