About Alloy Wheel x3s

An alloy is a combination of two elements, one being a metal, producing a metal with different properties, that is stronger; often more lightweight; efficient at heat conduction; easy to shape into different formations; and more resistant to rust than the more commonly used steel. These are reasons why alloy is a popular choice as the material for car wheels. Modern manufactured alloy wheels are usually made of an alloy of aluminium but can also be made of an alloy of magnesium or chrome. 

The Jaguar alloy wheel X3 are three strong and durable alloy wheels and the perfect replacement wheels for your car.

The wheels of a car are a crucial part of the car. Choosing the right wheels for a vehicle is important; they play a big part in how well the car handles on the road, affecting the performance and general efficiency of the car.  Being lighter the model> alloy wheel X3 can enhance the performance of a car by reducing the amount of fuel the car uses, improving steering performance acceleration and braking. Being excellent heat conductors means that with alloy wheels the brakes are less likely to fail when under pressure. Functionality and durability aren't the only reason alloy wheels are popular with car owners. Alloy wheels have a certain look and style that can enhance the aesthetic appeal of a car offering sleek bare metal finishes and various shapes, designs and styles of wheel, allowing drivers to customise and personalise their car.  

Although more resistant to corrosion than steel wheels, the Jaguar alloy wheel X3 are likely to eventually become susceptible to rust and are particularly given to galvanic corrosion, which can lead to problems with the tyres letting out air. Alloy wheels should be protected with a cover, paint or a sealant which will increase their resistance to corrosion and regular cleaning will help to increase their lifespan and look. However, due to the amount of wear and tear they receive on the road, from adverse weather and debris such as stones, mud and water, as well as being prone to receiving dents, knocks and scratches, they will eventually need replacing. When purchasing just three alloy wheels ensure they match the other alloy wheel on your car that they are the right size for both the tyre and your car (using the wrong size wheel and tyre can cause damage to the car) and that they are compatible with the make and model of your car.  More expensive to produce than steel wheels’ alloy wheels are generally more expensive to buy.

Jaguar trivia

• Steve McQueen was a huge fan of the Jaguar XKSS and even found himself with two driving bans because of his passion for driving fast. He was one of the few people to ever drive an XKSS because only 16 were ever made! McQueen did eventually sell his car, but regretted it immediately and paid more to get it back. The car is now owned by US TV host Jay Leno.
• Jaguar isn't a big name in F1, but they did have a go. They raced between 2000 and 2004 but didn't perform well enough to justify the costs. They managed a less than stellar ninth place in their final race.
• When they first launched in 1922, Jaguar was called the Swallow Sidecar Company. They changed the name in 1945 because of the unfortunate use of the letters 'SS' by Germany in the war.
• PM Margaret Thatcher was determined to keep Jaguar as a British company, and in 1984 she announced that the brand was protected from foreign purchasing. The government retained a 50% share of the company until it became clear that foreign investment was essential as 1990 rolled around.
• The 2014 Superbowl advert for Jaguar featured Brit actors Ben Kingsley and Mark Strong, with a terrified Tom Hiddlestone hanging out of a helicopter as it flew across London. Not many people know that the driver used for this advert was The Stig (Ben Collins).
