Felgenstern star rim Explanation: The 'Alu-' probably stands for 'aluminium' -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 mins (2007-02-23 03:54:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It's unlikely that a rim is made of pure aluminium. Therefore, 'star rim made of aluminium alloy' is a safer bet. Does that fit in the context? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 24 mins (2007-02-23 03:56:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or: 'star rim made of aluminium alloy frame' |

star-design alloy wheels Explanation: star-design multi-spoke alloy wheels star-design X-spoke alloy wheels (X is the number of spokes if you know how many spokes actual wheel has) "rim" i sjust a part of a wheel, whould use it in this context Look on page 3 of the pdf brochure here: http://www.audi.com.au/upload/specs/Audi_A4_Sedan_Spec_736.p... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 28 mins (2007-02-23 03:59:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "rim" is just a part of a wheel, would NOT use it in this context. And certainly not "alloy frame"! |

spoked alloys/spoked alloy rims Explanation: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/1754256 Find it also in the lower URL The number of spokes can vary, of course -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2007-02-23 09:24:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Wyhlidal Dico: Felge = Laufrad road wheel / rim, wheel rim Schmitt: Felge = wheel rim (Teil des Rades, auf dessen Umfang der Reifen aufgenommen wird. Die verschiedenen Felgenarten und Felgensysteme existieren aufgrund unterschiedlicher Reifen- und Fahrzeugarten.) "Felgen sind wie die zugehörigen Reifen sowohl national als auch international genormt und daher austauschbar." "Rims and corresponding tires are standardized both nationally and internationally and are thus interchangeable." Reference: http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/www/dealer_services.asp??ab... |
