I'm well aware that aluminum alloy does not equal magnesium.. no rim is made of magnesium though, at least not entirely.

They're made of an aluminum alloy bonded with magnesium and other metals, hence the name "mag" rims
.


HUH???
Christ better go study some more. There are Magnesium wheels on the market. I can get you as many as you want to pay for, and FYI, No they aren't "bonded" with Aluminium alloy. You may call any old wheels "Mag Wheels" but they never "went out of production" they were always being produced as are composites; and I can get you those too.
