GREG WELD ANNOUNCES NEW FORGED TRUCK WHEELS NEW FORGED ONE-PIECE DESIGNS OFFER UNMATCHED STYLE AND SUPERB STRENGTH.

    /24-7PressRelease/ - KANSAS CITY, MO, January 24, 2007 - Greg Weld's new line of wheels are custom built, forged, 3-D machined and meticulously finished and are available in a range of sizes including 20x10, 20x12, 20x14, 22x10.5, 22x12 and 24x12. Greg Weld says, "I have been working vigorously with Forgitron in a collaborative effort to develop a new proprietary forging technology that will surpass all existing forging technologies in the wheel industry today." Greg Weld Forged Wheels will be available in chrome plated or feature our new proprietary coating that ensures resistance to extreme temperatures, brake dust and weather, along with ease for cleaning. These new designs are purpose-built in six and 8-lug applications with an aggressive offset to fit the GM, Ford, and Nissan SUVs and pickups. In addition, they will be available for the rugged 8-lug GM, Ford, and Dodge trucks and SUVs.

"I have worked for more than 35 years to perfect forged wheel technology," says CEO Greg Weld. "There is no doubt that our new wheel line and our relationship with Forgitron will bring excitement to the industry." Mr. Weld continues, "I have always manufactured wheels in the U.S.A. and will continue to do so with Forgitron and the new Greg Weld wheel line." The new forging technology by Forgitron will offer the best-forged wheels, including the lightest and strongest truck wheel ever built. All wheels will exceed OE load carrying capacity and will be lighter than any other forged wheel on the market today.

The strength and durability of the new Greg Weld Wheels make them a perfect complement to today's formidable trucks and SUVs. When installed on a Suburban, Expedition or Super-Duty pickup, the Greg Weld Forged Wheels load capacity exceeds the vehicles rated GVW by a substantial margin, even when at the factory-recommended maximum.

Another advantage to the new Greg Weld Forged Wheels is the outstanding finish available when forged 6061 alloy is used. Unlike cast aluminum, which can contain high quantities of impurities and porosity, the 6061 alloy is extremely dense, almost 100% pure, and accepts a brilliant polish. When chrome plated, the new Greg Weld Forged Wheels can only be described as the finest and toughest finish on a wheel that money can buy.

Greg Weld Forged Wheels are available in various styles, in the correct fitments for most popular SUVs and pickups. For more information, please contact Boyd Coddington at 816.472.4734.
