2009 has been a time of economic downturn and struggle for many individuals and companies. The wheel market on the other hand has been pumping out many wheels. The freshly released wheels have all new designs as well as new manufacturing techniques resulting in stronger and lighter wheels! Wheelsto wanted to take the time towards the end of the season to recap some of the exciting wheel releases from various premium manufacturers.
BBS - The all and mighty, always popular
CH-R was released in 20" version with 19" confirmed for release by the end of the year
LM was released with 2 new finishes in the US, Diamond Black and Gold
LM-R was released in Diamond Black in the US
Rays - One of our favorites around the shop
Volk G2 - The second generation TE37 in 19" and 20" models both featuring a slightly differing design
