Wheel and Tire Buyer's Guide - The World Of Wheels
You've Never Had A Wider Selection Of Wheel Styles And Sizes To Choose From
From the August, 2004 issue of Sport Truck
AC Schnitzer Type II Sizes:... AC Schnitzer Type II Sizes: 22x10.5 inches Finishes: silver or chrome Contact: Claus Ettensberger Corp. (CEC), Dept. ST, 10349 Santa Monica Blvd., West Los Angeles, CA 90025, (800) 766-0064, www.cecwheels.com For the longest time, the only thing people could talk about when it came to wheels was size. First there were dubs (aka 20-inch-diameter rims). Then there were 22s, then 24s - and now you can actually find several different styles in 28-inch sizes. Finally, there's other exciting news when it comes to wheels, and this has to do with styling. There's been a burst of design activity on the wheel front, as companies integrate new textures, colors, and even cubic zirconia and crystals into their wheel designs. We've even seen black make the move from sport compact car wheels and NASCAR-look designs to a new, more sophisticated style for pickups and SUVs. The choices are amazing. Let's say you want wheels that look like ostrich or alligator skin. We got ya covered here. Perhaps you're looking for something both shiny and satin. Not a problem. Or maybe you want a wheel that's both gold and silver. In that case, you have choices. We've got lots of variations on the classic five-spoke, and designs that range from extremely open to a whole lotta metal for your money. So go ahead, check out this sneak peak into the world of wheels. With all the variety we've found, we're sure there's something here that you're gonna love.  ADR Raven Sizes: 20x8.5, 22x9.5...
