Wheels designed for the seventh generation of a mid-size sedan produced by a Japanese automotive manufacturer during the 2014 model year are the focus. These components connect the vehicle to its tires, facilitating movement. They vary in material, such as steel or aluminum alloy, and design, impacting both aesthetics and performance. For example, a specific wheel might be a 16-inch steel wheel offered as standard equipment on the base model.
The selection of these components influences several factors, including the vehicle’s handling, fuel efficiency, and overall appearance. Alloy wheels, for instance, are typically lighter than their steel counterparts, potentially improving gas mileage and handling. Furthermore, they contribute significantly to the car’s visual appeal, offering a variety of styles and finishes. Historically, the availability of different wheel options has allowed owners to personalize their vehicles and tailor them to their specific needs and preferences.
