AC Schnitzer Type VIII Alloy Wheels for the Spring

AACHEN, GERMANY – March 12, 2010: Car fans can already start to celebrate Spring 2010, because tuning specialist AC Schnitzer has again added an extraordinary 19" wheel design to its range. The new AC Schnitzer Type VIII alloy rim in BiColor Finish supplements the Type VIII wheel range, which also includes the Type VIII forged racing rim.

The new one-piece wheel has a beautiful but "easy care" look, without any loss of unrestricted suitability for everyday use. The Type VIII alloys are made in the low pressure process and subjected to heat treatment after casting. Thanks to the high quality casting process, the characteristic AC Schnitzer design with its 5 double spokes can be made even more delicate for optimum weight.

The perfect BiColor Finish gives the Type VIII alloy wheel a sophisticated sporting look for the totally new BMW models, the 5-series GT (F07), X1 (E84) or Z4 (E89). But it also perfectly fills the wheelarches on many other vehicles from the BMW range - such as for example the 1-series, 3- series, 5-series, 6-series and 7-series - to the delight of drivers who appreciate the visual appearance of their car. So Spring 2010 will be coming a little earlier.
