  2. Durable Construction:

    • Steel Material: The steel rim and hubs offer excellent durability and strength, capable of withstanding significant stress and impacts. Steel is known for its long-lasting properties and resilience.
    • Universal Chrome Plated Spokes: UCP spokes provide a layer of protection against corrosion while enhancing the wheel’s overall appearance with a polished finish.
