All kinds of alloys. Alloys are mixtures of different metals to get the best characteristics of each component. Different alloys have different qualities, have different production technologies, and, consequently different prices. Unfortunately, the more expensive the alloy is, the fewer compromises it has. The best alloy wheels use magnesium: Mg makes them extremely lightweight, extremely rigid -- and extremely expensive. Racing cars and luxury cars sport Mg alloy rims for best performance. Street type "alloy" wheels use aluminum alloys, look nice, but not as light as the more expensive rims. (Weight is an important feature of rims, the lighter the better, as a rule of thumb.) Ordinary rims are made of steel and steel-based alloys. They are cheap, durable, easy to fix if deformed, but don't look or weigh particularly nice.
