Challenges Of Using Wire Wheels

By Kenneth Bennett


The challenge of wire may be due to the structure of the wheel which is the rim is held to the hub by the wire spokes. This therefore means that wire wheels may be a nuisance or problematic to the user in this case the driver. This is shown by the discussion below.

The first obvious problem is that they easily collect dirt and they are difficult and a nuisance in cleaning them. This is so as they easily gather dust or leaves or mud which can stick on them . This therefore means that the owner of vehicle or cleaner has to go through a lot during the cleaning process of the wheel.it is not easy to clean them well due to the spokes.

It also promotes a risk to rusting. Because not all are made up of non-rusting metals such as aluminum . Rusting also happens due to contact with water as wheel rotates and moves around. Rusting itself can be a menace since it can cause breaking of the spokes since their quality can be compromised by being weak. Rusting also affects the movement of wheel mainly in the rotating parts.

The other challenge is that they can be bent or their shape which should be a perfect circle being affected. This is common especially in bad roads because wheel hits the pot holes hence bending. It may also bend as a result of overloading of the vehicle. The change in shape makes them move in unstable manner which may result to accidents or reduced speed to the vehicle. Their bending is a big problem since it is difficult to fix.

Another issue not is heaviness. This is because the high number of metal being used to make them. Heaviness may affect the movement and speed in which they rotate . Due to this issue it may end up making the moving object for example car to use more energy and fuel to make them rotate faster. Those being heavy also may end up causing destruction of infrastructure such as path ways and roads.

They also may collapse. This is because they are attached together mainly at the middle.in the instance of an object such as a metal object may stick at the middle when it is rotating hence it may result to collapsing wheel. This collapsing may result to accidents or falling if the vehicle was moving. It is also difficult to fix a problem on collapsing in their structure.

They also may be expensive to purchase and maintain since they are not commonly used especially for the vehicles in the new current times. Expensive to maintain since in case of damage on has to buy new wires . The high level of work in assembling means that they are also expensive to purchase.

In conclusion it is evident from the discussion above about the use of wheels. There a lot of factors which have to be considered before using them so as to prevent any damage caused by using without understanding well the use of wheels.
