Motegi Racing launches a new style for the streets, the DP20


Rancho Dominguez, Calif. - August 25, 2006 - American Racing Equipment,
Inc., a Platinum Equity company, announces the latest addition to the
performance tuner Motegi Racing STREET product line.

DP20
An urban essential, the DP20 is a multi-spoke (20 to be exact) wheel with
the perfect combo of street style, Euro design and tuner influences. The
DP20 was designed by Myles Kovacs, President and Co-founder of DUB magazine,
a man who knows a little something about going large. It's got a fat lip and
stylish spokes. The 20" version features a massive 3" machined lip.


The DP20 is a one piece cast alloy wheel and can step up your game in 17x7,
18x8, 20x7.5 for popular car and crossover applications, available in Glossy
Black, Silver, or Chrome. Details include a covered cap for a clean look, a
brightly polished lip, and 30 aluminum rivets. Back in 2004 Motegi Racing
was the first wheel company to offer a 20" wheel made specifically for the
import world - now the 20x7.5" DP20 allows any tuner (even those with Civics
and Scions) to roll large on 20's. 

DP20. The world is watching. Give it something to stare at.

(2586)
                       Sizes (offsets): 17x7 (+42mm), 18x8 (+45), 20x7.5
