New Hyundai Venue with Aftermarket Alloy Wheels
This post stems from ravityres_amritsar on Instagram. The visuals capture a brand new Hyundai Venue, with its wheels taken off. This prominent aftermarket car shop is famous for offering all sorts of designs and patterns for alloys. With this new Venue, the owner opted for a large black multi-spoke pattern, which looks extremely sporty with red brake calipers. When the vehicle is driven on the road, we see the sheer size of these tyres. In fact, they extend out of the body, complementing the squared-off wheel arches. All in all, these alloy wheels certainly elevate the imposing road presence of the new Venue.

My View
Installing aftermarket alloy wheels on a vehicle is the easiest way to transform the appearance. However, one must exercise caution while selecting new alloys with unusual dimensions. While these might look cool, there can be some significant downsides. For instance, if the alloy wheels are too large, a considerable weight is added to the car. This could affect the performance slightly and will definitely reduce mileage. Furthermore, they can even affect the suspension and other mechanical components in the long run. Hence, I would advise our readers to not install too large wheels in comparison to the stock to avoid any issues.

As someone who’s been closely tracking the Indian car scene for over a decade, I can tell you that the Hyundai Venue remains one of the most well-rounded compact SUVs in its segment. The aftermarket alloy trend highlights just how emotionally invested Indian buyers are in personalizing their vehicles. That said, it’s crucial to strike the right balance between aesthetics and practicality, oversizing alloys may look great on Instagram but can easily compromise ride quality, efficiency, and long-term reliability.
