WELD WHEEL INDUSTRIES NEW WHEEL Commando P.R.O for OFF-ROAD and ROCK CRAWLING
Commando P.R.O for OFF-ROAD and ROCK CRAWLING
Weld Wheel Industries introduced a new wheel for off-road and rock crawling competition at the 2005 SEMA show. This new wheel called the Commando P.R.O. is designed for the rigors of desert racing and other brutal forms of competition. This wheel will undergo further testing in this year’s Baja 1000.
Hot forged from an ingot of 6061 aerospace quality aluminum alloy, this one-piece wheel sets a new standard for strength and durability for off-road racing. The bead-loc receiver is an integral part of the forging for superior strength and a consistent hardness throughout the forged part unlike welded on bead-locs. The bead-loc ring is retained with 32 recessed bolts for protection and is a hot forged part taken from Weld Motorsports Top Fuel bead-loc design, a part renowned for its strength, holding power, and damage resistance. The threaded-in valve stems are positioned out of harms way. The wheel can accommodate a liner or be run without one for reduced weight. The wheel openings are designed to cool the brakes. The wheel will accommodate a back-space from 4.5� to 6.0�. The available size is 17�x9�. The wheel is powder coated with a translucent gray and has the signature Weld bead-loc powder coated black.
Once all laboratory and racing testing is complete, the Commando P.R.O. will go into production and will be available for orders at the PRI show in Orlando in December. The wheel will be in stock and available for shipping by the 2005 Off Road Impact show in Las Vegas in January.
