kia Hyundai Wheel WA-H8517 – The Perfect Balance of OEM Fitment, Sporty Design, and Everyday Reliability
Looking to upgrade your Kia, Hyundai, or Mitsubishi ride with a set of alloy wheels that checks all the boxes—style, performance, durability, and perfect fitment? Look no further than the WA-H8517. This wheel is a modern classic, designed to elevate the look and feel of sedans and crossovers across the Korean and Japanese automotive spectrum.
Let’s explore why the WA-H8517 is one of the most popular choices among UAE drivers and why it deserves a place on your vehicle.
⸻
A Design That Makes a Statement
The WA-H8517 features a refined V-spoke pattern that creates a clean yet aggressive visual tone. The symmetry and sharp angles of the V-shaped spokes create a dynamic profile—giving your car that extra “edge” without going over the top. It’s the perfect middle ground for drivers who want a modern upgrade but want to keep it tasteful and OEM-inspired.
This wheel is available in both 17 inch and 18 inch sizes, allowing you to customize your setup depending on whether you’re aiming for maximum comfort or a slightly sportier look.
⸻
Applications – Built for Versatility
Designed specifically for compatibility with Kia, Hyundai, and select Mitsubishi models, the WA-H8517 is ideal for:
• Kia: Cerato, K5, Optima, Sportage, Sorento
• Hyundai: Elantra, Sonata, Tucson, Kona, Santa Fe
• Mitsubishi: ASX, Outlander, Lancer EX
Its 5×114.3 bolt pattern and optimized offset make it a plug-and-play upgrade for most OEM setups. No spacers, no custom hub rings—just direct bolt-on convenience.
⸻
Material & Construction – Performance in Every Turn
Manufactured from A356 aluminum, this alloy wheel is heat-treated for added strength while remaining lightweight. This delivers key performance benefits:
• Reduced unsprung weight
• Better fuel efficiency
• Faster acceleration & braking
• Enhanced steering response
Whether you’re driving through urban roads in Dubai or taking long trips across the GCC, the WA-H8517 stands up to daily abuse while maintaining its shine and shape.
⸻
Finish Options – Black That Pops
The most popular finish for Kia Hyundai Wheel WA-H8517 is matte black or gloss black, both of which contrast beautifully against white, silver, red, and grey car bodies. It’s a favorite among drivers who want a sporty look without losing sophistication.
We also offer custom finishes upon request such as gunmetal or machine face—contact our team for availability.
⸻
Direct OEM Replacement – No Hassle Fit
One of the top selling points of the Kia Hyundai Wheel WA-H8517 is that it’s a true OEM fit. That means:
• Uses your factory lug nuts
• No spacers or adaptors needed
• Balanced and hub-centric for your specific car
This eliminates guesswork and ensures a stress-free installation.
⸻
Use Case Scenarios – From Daily Drivers to Fleet Vehicles
The Kia Hyundai Wheel WA-H8517 isn’t just for car enthusiasts. It’s also ideal for:
• Daily commuters who want style with durability

Comparison with Similar Wheels
WA-H8517 vs WA-H8518

WA-H8517 vs OEM Factory Wheels
OEM wheels are often heavier and more conservative in design. The WA-H8517 provides a lighter, stronger, and more visually appealing alternative without sacrificing OEM fitment or comfort.
