“This is a great way to expand our products for these popular vehicles while meeting the racer’s needs,” said Norman Young, president and CEO of WELD. “With the ever increasing horsepower levels, quicker times and higher speeds of modern production-based cars, many racing organizations are now mandating the use of Bead-loc wheels for enhanced driver safety.”
Young also points out the many advantages of Bead-loc wheels such as an improved and more secure method of tire mounting, better air retention within the tire, and a positive stop from the tire wanting to go inward as it grows at higher speeds.
