He helped to create drag racing wheels for his car. They were me of a revolutionary material called magnesium to have a increased ratio of strength to weight, and his wheels were like no other wheel manufactured at the time. Soon they added Tom Griffith to the mix, who was an engineer ahead of his time in the rest became American racing history.

They were known to supply innovative designs on both wheels and rims, including the Americans, Torq Thrust and five spokes. American racing wheels Torq Thrust is now considered a classic with its tapered parabolic spoke, which is light weight and has an advanced break cooling system.
This became the model for high performance wheels with custom rim and wheel enthusiasts.

American Racing Wheels and American Racing Rims were reintroduced into the market in 2002 when, in combination with DuPont, they released a new Teflon coated wheel that came from two years of exclusive partnering with the DuPont company.
