Used Heavy Truck Parts Network 

Budd wheels are lightweight wheels that have ten lugs for mounting including a wheel and a rim that are designed as a single piece. This one piece rim and wheel assembly got its name from the Budd Corporation who originally designed the wheel. A Budd wheel is made out of stamped and welded steel or forged aluminum and is anchored by a hub of 8 or 10 nuts. For those who have seen a Budd wheel but has no idea that they are actually looking at a Budd wheel, you will determine that it a wheel before your eyes is a Budd wheel because it has ten holes and its disc wheel are stud-piloted.

How Is the Bud Wheel Designed?

If you have already envisioned how you want your car to look like and if what it lacks is the actual purchasing of the parts, you still need further consideration on the specific types of parts that you will attach to your car. To begin with, you are sure that you need wheels to run your car but you are not sure which type of wheel you are going to purchase.

Certainly, the process of choosing could be confusing especially if you do not have a deep background on automotives because there are several types of wheels. Budd wheels are just one of them. And if you have already opted to take Budd wheels, you still need to qualify whether you would take any of the following aluminum or stainless materials used for a one-piece wheel.

• One-piece cast wheels. This is the most common kind of aluminum wheel. They are usually made of cast aluminum and are made out of getting a molten aluminum inside a mold to form a wheel. Although it sounds simple, making one piece cast aluminum wheels requires expertise and craft to come up with a nice Budd wheel.
• One-piece forge wheels. This type of Budd wheel is made by forcing a solid billet of aluminum before the forging dies under extreme pressure to come up with the desired configuration and curves. This type of wheel is manufactured from a single solid piece of metal that results into a strong and lightweight wheel. Because of the wheels specific design, it eliminates the need to weld and attach components to the wheel thereby improving its strength while reducing manufacturing costs and increasing its market value because of its reliability.
• Stainless steel wheels. This design is quite an innovation in the automotive industry. This is done by inserting the stainless steel lip, which creates an illusion that the wheel is a multi-piece wheel while maintaining the reliability of a one-piece wheel.

Advantages of One-Piece Wheel

A one-piece cast aluminum wheel such as the Budd wheel is inexpensive. It is perfectly round. This type of wheel also offers a better balance and smoother ride. Aluminum is also lightweight, which would mean that it affords easy maneuvering and has lesser fuel consumption.
