Streetspin by Davin Provides New Level of Luxury for 

More Than 100 Vehicles

 

Davin Wheels' Style and Technology Available to Entirely New Market

 

Providence, R.I. - For years, automotive enthusiasts have waited
patiently for the superior design and patented spinning technology of
Davin Wheels (www.davinwheels.com <http://www.davinwheels.com/> ) to be
available in a wide range of fitments to fit their vehicles. Streetspin
by Davin (www.streetspin.com <http://www.streetspin.com/> ) ends the
three -year wait. With design cues taken from Davin's signature
Revolution line, Streetspin offers "affordable luxury" for auto
enthusiasts who want authentic spinning wheels, rather than spinning
attachments.

 

Streetspin utilizes Davin's proprietary technology to produce spinners
with unparalleled balance. The base wheel is a fully-chromed, low
pressure cast wheel with an integrated mesh screen made from
light-weight aluminum. Streetspin is currently available in two styles:

 

*	SS1 - A traditional five-spoke design makes SS1 a classic. It is
designed with a recessed spinner and lip overhang to accentuate spinning
at all angles. It is available in 19-, 20-, 22- and 24-inch diameters
and a chrome or satin silver finish.

*	SS2 - SS2 pays homage to traditional mesh-style wheels. Its
nine-spoke design blends traditional style with new age spinning
technology. SS2 also is available in 19-, 20-, 22- and 24-inch sizes and
a chrome or satin silver finish.

 

"Streetspin by Davin offers the consumer a high-quality,
competitively-priced alternative to the imitation spinning wheels that
are in the market. Streetspin carries the distinction of Davin's
patented freespin technology and superior design, but at a lower price
point," said David Fowlkes, president and lead designer, Davin Wheels.
"We equate Davin's 2004 product collection to Ralph Lauren's Purple
Label collection, which makes Streetspin the 'Chaps by Ralph Lauren' of
the Davin product line.  With Streetspin we are continuing to offer the
style and luxury of the Davin brand."

 

Even though the mesh screen of the base wheel is painted black, it
provides the perfect canvas to inspire "multifaceted customization."
This may include spinners painted to match the vehicles, which downplays
overall wheel chrome, or painted screens, which is a subtler approach to
customization that accentuates the overall wheel chrome. (Wheel owners
are responsible for customization.)

 

Streetspin offers fitments for more than 100 vehicles, which is most
extensive range of fitments ever offered for a Davin product line. To
determine fitments for specific vehicles, please visit

select distributors and retailers in the United States and Canada.
