Thank you for all your replies, would alloys make an affect on MPG’s?? Obviously being lighter? I don’t know I’m just curious
Also does it have an affect on truck speed? Or not. ThanksAlso I’ve gain new customers through them .
That’s with a Foden Dan, think of all that work if you had a blinged up V8,the phone would melt!
[/quote]Dan’s phone would melt from constantly phoning parts suppliers to get the sodding V8 back on the road to actually do some work!
On tippers or trucks running at top weight most of the time there was a good weight saving to be had with alloys but otherwise they can be an expensive item with no real advantage if bulk more than weight is what you carry.
