Bright, shiny wheels make a great impression. A good wheel needs to be behind that shine. Finding the best wheels and properly maintaining them offers paybacks in reliability and performance. Finishes that protect Step one in the process is finding wheels with protective finishes. Alcoa said it offers several finishes that not only protect the wheels, but also help a fleet maintain a favorable image. Alcoa's Dura-Bright line of aluminum wheels can be cleaned eas ily with just soap and water, keeping the maintenance time to a minimum, according to Sharon Levine, marketing communications associate for Alcoa Wheel and Transportation Products. These highly polished wheels have a surface treatment that is durable, she says, "and if maintained prop- erly, they will last for years."
