Steel or alloy wheels
So I am thinking of putting some steel wheels or eagle alloys on my blazer. It will be my daily. I dont really want to spend 500-600 on eagles when I can get a set of wagon wheels for 250. But I guess the question is what is the difference? I know the alloys will be a tad lighter but is that it?
