China has become a manufacturing center of aluminum automotive wheels in the world now. Actually China has strong advantages in the production of aluminum wheels, the reasons are as following:

First, the labor costs are lower than that of private enterprises in European Union. Second, China is the world’s largest alumina supplier, and has obvious advantages in alumina prices. Some wheel manufacturers set up factories in the vicinity of alumina manufacturers, such as Sanmenxia Dicastal; or alumina suppliers set up their own aluminum wheel factories, such us Chiping Xinfa. Third, China is the world’s largest automobile market and vehicle production base, and most aluminum wheel manufacturers are near automobile production bases or ports to save logistics costs.
