I don't ,want to get into a debate whether Alloy rims are better than steel rims. All I am saying, you need to check your wheel nuts on a regular basis with alloy rims. They have a habit of working loose. The first sign you will notice that something is wrong is just before the wheel falls off, usually on the left hand side. More often than not, they elongate the holes in the rim, to the point where they are not repairable. Rattle guns aren't reliable, you will need to check the wheel nuts with a torque wrench. When was the last time you checked your wheel nuts?
