Best Chevy Colorado Aftermarket Wheels and Rims

Why Install Aftermarket Wheels on Your Colorado?

Aftermarket wheels are one of the most popular accessories, offering several advantages over their factory counterparts. In this section, let’s cover the key benefits of outfitting your Chevy Colorado with aftermarket wheels, including styling, durability, and fitment

Styling

The first and arguably most commonly cited reason for installing aftermarket wheels is improving exterior aesthetics. Aftermarket wheels come in countless aesthetically pleasing styles and finishes, enabling you to drastically alter your Colorado’s appearance with a simple bolt-on modification! In addition to changing your wheel's style, you can also modify your Colorado's stance with alternative dimensions, like diameter, width, and offset!

Durability

Next, let’s talk about durability. Different applications may warrant alternative wheel constructions. For example, a dedicated off-road rig may benefit from durable steel wheels due to their propensity to bend on the trail after a harsh impact. Bashing a bent lip back into shape with a hammer is typically preferred to waiting on a tow in a remote location! 

Aftermarket wheels come in several materials, including cast aluminum, forged aluminum, and steel. No matter your driving style, you can find an aftermarket wheel that’ll hold up to your pickup!

Fitment

Lastly, let’s discuss fitment. Factory wheels typically feature conservative sizes, including diameter, width, and offset. When attempting to run oversized tires on your Colorado’s factory wheels, you may find that not only is the factory wheel too narrow to accept the tire size you want, but the high factory offset sucks the tire too close to the suspension, leading to undesirable rubbing. 

Aftermarket wheels come in various configurations, allowing you to fine-tune your wheel and tire fitment to best suit your Colorado’s suspension setup.

Types of Aftermarket Wheels and Rims

RealTruck has an extensive aftermarket wheel catalog. Not only do we carry products from numerous manufacturers, but each manufacturer offers several styles, constructions, and finishes! Let’s dig deeper into the common variances you’ll encounter when browsing wheels on RealTruck.

Aftermarket Wheel Styles

Aftermarket wheels come in various styles, ranging from classic bullet-hole to elaborate, multi-spoke designs. Some of our most popular styles include:

• Bullet Hole

• Concave

• Deep Lip

• Directional

• HD

• Mesh

• OE Replica

• Spoked

• Vintage / Retro

Aftermarket Wheel Constructions

Build quality is another facet of selecting the proper wheels for your Colorado. We carry rims in multiple popular constructions, each offering unique properties. 

Regarding materials, nearly all wheels and rims on the market feature an aluminum or steel construction, providing exceptional strength and reliability. As a rule of thumb, aluminum wheels are considerably lighter yet more brittle than steel wheels, while steel wheels are generally more durable yet heavy and prone to corrosion. While wheel manufacturers rarely stray from these popular materials, they may implement alternative manufacturing processes that result in different properties, including:

• 1-Piece

• 2-Piece

• Beadlock

• Cast

• Flow Forged

• Forged

• Steel

Aftermarket Wheel Finishes

Whereas construction determines the base materials and manufacturing processes used to produce a wheel, finish refers to the coating, plating, or treatment of a wheel that determines its corrosion resistance, color, and overall aesthetic qualities. Some of the most popular finishes include:

• Black

• Bronze

• Brushed

• Chrome/Polished
