KMC XD AND ROCKSTAR ENTER POWERSPORTS MARKET
FULL UTV LINE NOW AVAILABLE FROM KMC WHEELS
Buena Park, Calif. (September 12, 2016) – KMC Wheels today announces its official entry into the powersports market with a full dropdown line of UTV wheels from its existing consumer-favorite XD and Rockstar wheels. KMC Wheels’ customers can now customize their truck and UTV with matching, unparalleled styling and performance. Wheels and full product specifications are available at www.wheelprospowersports.com and powersports dealers nationwide.
Founded in 1982, KMC Wheels has established itself as a leader in the production of extra-duty, off-road racing custom wheels and holds a strong connection to off-road and performance sports.
“KMC Wheels intends to carry over its 30-year legacy of delivering innovative performance wheels for the off-roading enthusiast community and capture the same success within the powersports market,” comments Jody Groce, President at Wheel Pros. “We are excited to now be able to offer our customers custom wheels for all of their recreational vehicles.”
The styles of the UTV wheels offered by KMC Wheels are authentic to the individual aesthetics of the XD and Rockstar lines. The XD, or “extra duty,” styles have higher load rated engineering at 1,250 lbs. which means more play and less worry for customers. They are also available with the new XD Pro Cap with an interchangeable color "ring,” and come in both standard and functional beadlock. The Rockstar I and Rockstar II styles, true to the applications for truck and SUV, are highly customizable with an interchangeable cap star and spoke fins available in a variety of finishes.
