    Wheel alignment and balancing: can it be done with the car in park

    Hello guys. Maybe a stupid question, but this is my 1st ev and so i guess it's better to be safe than sorry. I'm getting a new pair of tires for the front wheels and i want to do a wheel alignment/balance. In all the other cars I've owned, the car should be in neutral without leaving the...

    Video - Wheels for EVs and Winter Tires

    Can you use any winter tire on an EV? Is there an advantage to getting a wheel designed for EVs? Are some wheels made for winter use? Fast Wheels is a Canadian company?! Yes, it is! I answer these and many other questions. I bought new Fast EV wheels for my Kia EV6 for winter use, and I bought...

    Prepping (and personalizing) my winter wheels

    Not long after ordering my SE in mid-March — still in the tail end of winter up here, and just a couple of days after Quebec drivers are allowed to switch back to non-winter tires — I set about looking for a set of rims for the next winter.

    Diamond cut wheels ... how are they holding up?

    MINI has had diamond cut wheel options for a while now (roulette spoke, propeller spoke, rail spoke, etc.) ... they look nice, but I hear diamond cut wheels tend to have corrosion issues. If you have some that are a year or two old, how are they holding up (pictures encouraged)? If you were...

    Aftermarket wheel change for EV SUV

    I’m considering a new set of aftermarket wheels for my 2021 BYD Song Plus EV (I’m based in China). I wanted to see if anyone could help me understand what to consider when changing wheel styles. My stock rims are 19” (235/50R19), and my thoughts were to keep the same size and even change over...

    Wheel information

    I have a black Clarity PHEV. I don't especially like the gray plastic inserts in the wheels. I considered the Honda Civic 64108 18" wheels as they are exact matches to the Clarity wheels, but I hated to have to deal with the tire swap, etc. I found that the Clarity Fuel Cell has gloss black...

    What's Behind The Wheel? {with scratch-n-sniff photos}

    Okay, no scratch and sniff, but YES on the photos. So, last night, I went to Discount Tire to get my Michelin X-ice snow tires installed along with new rims to make life easier for me. When the wheels were off, I snuck in there to get some photos. Even the installer was impressed with what he...
