Its not the risk directly, its the policy you are on. If you were over 25 you would probably have the policy underwritten by a different insurer with different conditions.
Basically they've more options in what insurance product to sell you if you're older.

It's probably something to do with them thinking if you have alloys on you will be a ' boy racer '
