Miami, FL April 14, 2009: GGI European Tuning announces the debut of the Carlsson 1/5 REVO wheel design, which recently made its world premiere at the Geneva Motor Show. Now available in the U.S. through GGI, the 1/5 REVO features a revolutionary design and a striking contrasting color and finish geared toward younger buyers. Priced aggressively for the younger set as well, the 1/5 REVO still demonstrates Carlsson’s commitment to manufacturing high quality performance products for Mercedes Benz automobiles.

The conspicuously provocative 1/5 REVO features five double spokes with an unusual split contrasting matte black and gloss-turned silver surface. The spoke design is drawn from the struts over the rim bead for an eye-catching and visually larger appearance. Carlsson left its conservative roots behind when designing the aggressive 1/5 REVO. For those who want it known their taste in performance products is as discriminating as their taste in automobiles, the Carlsson REVO proclaims its name clearly in contrasting matte black.

The quality of the Carlsson 1/5 REVO is as uncompromising as its design. Engineered to adhere to the highest quality control requirements, the 1/5 REVO is lightweight and durable. Available in 19”x8.5”, 19”x9.5”, 20”x8.5” and 20”x10.5” sizes, it fits a variety of Mercedes models including the B-class (T 245), C-class (W/S 204), CLC Sport coupé (CL 203), SLK (R 171), CLK (C/A 209), E-class (W/S 211 / W 211AMG), CLS (C 219), S-class (W 221), CL (C 216) and SL (R 230).

As with all other Carlsson products for Mercedes vehicles, the 1/5 REVO can be purchased directly through GGI European Tuning and professionally installed with high performance Pirelli tires at their Miami, Florida or Huntington Beach, California locations, or through one of their dealers. GGI is the exclusive North American importer of the Carlsson brand tuning line for Mercedes Benz automobiles.
