Actual overlanders, people who drive 100s of thousands of miles over every terrain/ecosystem/country love steel wheels because they are much easier to repair. They can be banged back into shape or even welded.There's like 3 people who like the steelies.
Another fun fact about actual overlanders:
They rarely use tires that are bigger than 32s. They are harder to replace in remote locations and do not really offer any real benefit to offset the extra cost/weight/fuel.
