BYD Alloy Wheels in the UAE: Types, Maintenance, and Driving Experience

 

The ergonomics of a car are not only in its interior design but also in the way it is built. While at first, alloys may seem non-convincing against the other components of the car, at BYD they take functionality and creativity into account, making alloy wheels a true work of art.

 

This time, we will discuss the bi-color alloy wheels that have cuts across the entire BYD lineup and see why they add charm to each drive.

 

What Are Alloy Wheels?

 

Wheels specially forged from alloys of lightweight metals such as magnesium or aluminum for convenience during propulsion are referred to as ‘mag wheels.’ When compared with steel, they are far less in weight, which greatly enhances acceleration along with brake and steering abilities.

Alloy wheels, referred to as mag wheels, are highly sought after in the UAE, bestowing true grace on the sports cars. They offer remarkable aerodynamic fuel efficiency for the BYD range.
Bi-color alloy wheels take things up a notch by blending two different wheel finishes, usually a shiny silver with a matte or glossy black. That contrast gives the wheels a layered, high-end look that really stands out and gives the car a more upscale vibe, even before you drive it off the lot.

 

Types of Bi-color Alloy Wheels of Various BYD Models

 

BYD Han Alloys

 

Depending on its trim level, the premium BYD Han sedan comes in a variety of wheel sizes:
- Premium Edition: Equipped with 19-inch aluminium alloy wheels paired with 245/45 R19 tyres.
- Platinum Edition: Also features 19-inch alloy wheels, maintaining a balance between style and performance.
These wheel and tyre packages offer an unmatched experience that blends aesthetics with an unmatched driving experience

 

BYD Seal Alloys

 

The modern and sleek design of the BYD Seal is completed with the 19-inch multispoke alloy wheels, which serve to appeal more. It works with the body’s sleek form alongside these wheels to bolster steering and secure sturdiness alongside the strength and feel of driving, which softens and improves every shift.

 

BYD Sealion 7 Alloys

 

These sporty wheel and tyre packages are tailored for greater command in your BYD Sealion 7 Alloys, enhancing the rugged stance that grips attention on the streets of Dubai.
- Premium Edition: Houses 19-inch multi-spoke (black-silver) dual-tone alloy wheels, with Continental EcoContact 6 Q tyres sized 235/50 R19 (front) and 255/45 R19 (rear) mounted.
- Performance Edition: Houses the 20-inch duotone (Black-Silver) multi-spoke alloys seated with 245/45 R20 Michelin Pilot Sport EV tyres.

 

BYD Atto 3 Alloys

 

The BYD Atto 3 has 18-inch alloy wheels that look excellent and are useful at the same time. Its wheel and tyre combination gives the car a more modern and sleek look, and it also helps it move quickly and accurately.

 

BYD Song Plus Alloys

 

The BYD Song Plus SUV offers 19-inch dual-tone wheels that enhance the vehicle's overall appearance as well as design purpose. The size increases grip and decreases noise from the road, particularly in the UAE, where highways and rough roads are common, all while maintaining driving stability.

 

BYD Qin Plus Alloys

 

BYD Qin Plus rolls on 16-inch wheels paired with 215/55 R17 tyres, a setup that strikes a nice balance between comfort and efficiency. The smaller, lighter wheels help cut down on rolling resistance, which means better fuel economy. Plus, the tyre’s profile offers just enough cushioning to smooth out bumps, making it a solid choice for everyday driving around the city or longer commutes, even when applying high pressure.

 

What are the Primary Benefits of Alloy Wheels?

 

Moving to a different set of wheels for a car can change how well the car performs and even the comfort level offered while driving. This is how alloy wheels affect the riding experience:

- Sharper handling: Thanks to their lighter build, alloy wheels reduce the load on your vehicle’s suspension. This improves steering response and makes cornering smoother and more predictable. If you drive at higher speeds or enjoy a bit of spirited driving, you’ll likely feel the difference.

- Improved braking performance: In hot climates like the UAE, where roads heat up fast, alloy wheels help keep your brakes from heating. They allow better airflow around the brake components, which helps maintain steady performance, especially when driving downhill or in heavy traffic.

- Better fuel economy: Since they’re not as heavy as steel wheels, the engine works less to move the car, ideal for city driving where every stop and start adds up.

- Boost in resale value: Even though they cost more upfront than steel wheels, original equipment signals care and quality to future buyers.

- They look better: Let’s be honest, with their unique shapes and bold finishes, these wheels bring a clean, upgraded look that subtly stands out.

 

Maintaining Your Alloy Wheels

 

If you want your wheels to keep turning heads and doing their job right, a little regular care goes a long way, especially in a place like the UAE, where heat and sand can be tough on finishes.

 

Alloys Maintenance Tips

 

1. Give them a quick wash every now and then: Use some mild soap, water, and a soft brush on the wheels. You don’t need anything fancy, just enough to get rid of brake dust and road grime before it builds up.
2. Wax helps more than you'd think: a simple wheel wax or sealant keeps dirt from sticking in the first place, which makes your life easier later.
3. Look them over once in a while: cracks, scuffs, or little bends can sneak up on you. Catching these early means you’re not shelling out for a full wheel replacement later.
4. Be careful with cleaners: Some wheel cleaners are too harsh and can mess with the finish. Stick to gentler options, especially on bi-color or painted rims.
5. Check your tyre pressure: It’s easy to forget, but keeping your tires properly inflated helps protect the rims from pothole damage and keeps your ride smooth.
