NEW YORK CITY, (March 24, 2005) Musician, fashion designer, actor and entrepreneur Sean P. Diddy Combs is partnering with Weld Wheels to produce a line of Sean John-branded high quality custom one- and three-piece precision-forged aluminum wheels for the sport truck, luxury SUV and high-end American and German luxury car markets. The custom designed wheels made their world debut at the Greater New York Auto Show on Thursday, March 24, 2005.
Designed specifically to reflect the sexy, sophisticated P. Diddy lifestyle image, Sean John Wheels are custom crafted for unmatched strength, lightness, and optimum brake cooling ability, and combine stylish, aggressive multi-spoke designs with an aura of elegance that will top off any custom or luxury ride.
"Wheels have become a fashion statement--a badge of taste and style, said Sean P. Diddy Combs. We see an opportunity to bring excitement to the wheel category by delivering the Sean John sophisticated design with the best quality production.
Created by Weld Wheels of Kansas City, MO, the Sean John Wheel Collection is a high-end, quality alternative to mainstream custom wheels. Each of the nine Sean John signature wheel designs from the elegant six-spoke to the amazingly intricate 18-spoke versions is built to Welds legendary toughness and durability standards, delivering low moment of inertia for improved acceleration, and improved air flow to help cooling and reduce lift and drag.
We are extremely excited to partner with Sean Combs in his initial venture into the automotive aftermarket arena, says Greg Weld, President and CEO of Weld Wheel Industries. Weve worked closely with him to create wheels with the quality and eye-catching appeal inherent in his other business enterprises.
