Dayton Wire Wheels Celebrates 90th Anniversary
Ninety years ago, Dayton Wire Wheels was established in Dayton, Ohio. It would become the premier designer and manufacturer of wire wheels for the next 90 years and beyond.
From the beginning, Dayton Wire Wheels set a high quality standard for the automotive industry. The Wright Brothers depended on Dayton Wire Wheels, Henry Ford chose Daytons, as did Charles Lindbergh for the Spirit of St. Louis. Auburn, Cord, and Duesenberg rode on Daytons, along with nearly 30 other makes. Dayton Wire Wheels was also put to the test for 30 years of racing in the Indianapolis 500. Today, this heritage of quality and durability still lives in every wire wheel that leaves the plant in Dayton, Ohio. British and Italian sports car owners choose Daytons, hot rod designers and builders have discovered Daytons, and even Harley-Davidson owners ride on American Wire Wheels made by Dayton.
Over the years, Dayton Wire Wheels has evolved through the incorporation of new technology and superior materials, changing with the times without compromising the classic styling. As a result, today's Dayton Wire Wheels is not only distinctive and prestigious, but also contemporary. Contact Dayton Wire Wheels at (888) 559-2880 to request the 90th anniversary catalog, or log on to the Website at www.daytonwirewheel.com.

HEMI Powered Dodge Charger SRT8
The Goodguys 2006 Grand Prize Giveaway HEMI Powered Dodge Charger SRT8s are hopped up and road ready. The ruby red monsters, which will be given away at the end of '06, have been accessorized with the coolest and latest customizing components. They started by lowering the car appropriately using a set of Eibach Pro Kit springs, followed by a set of riveted 20-inch Intro Phantom wheels. To top off the project, a Carriage Works custom billet grille kit was added. As you can see, the finished package makes for a stunning modern-era street machine.
