Alloy wheels are optional or standard on different trim levels. No
excessive wear with steel, just added weight.

My '03 has steel wheels with a cover. It varies with the trim level and
options selected.
As I am going black and white with my Ion, I actually like the black
steel rims :)

I would not bet on the weight thing. Cool looking alloy wheels often weigh
more than plain old stamped steel wheels.
