Two thieves rob a large fancy house when the owner is away, but when a visitor mistakes them for the owner, and they find out about a casting party misscheduled for that day, they decide to stick around for fun. They have only one small problem, though. The real owners owe some bad dudes a lot of money, and they show up to collect it.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Alloy wheel</span> Wheel made from an alloy of aluminium or magnesium

In the automotive industry, alloy wheels are wheels that are made from an alloy of aluminium or magnesium. Alloys are mixtures of a metal and other elements. They generally provide greater strength over pure metals, which are usually much softer and more ductile. Alloys of aluminium or magnesium are typically lighter for the same strength, provide better heat conduction, and often produce improved cosmetic appearance over steel wheels. Although steel, the most common material used in wheel production, is an alloy of iron and carbon, the term "alloy wheel" is usually reserved for wheels made from nonferrous alloys.
