As the automotive world converges in Detroit for the 2006 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS), Alcoa Wheels Products say that the company is enjoying fitment on many new 2006 models.

Alcoa wheels are also being shown on Ford F250 trucks, including Ford’s Harley-Davidson Edition and on the GMC Envoy Denali, Hummer H2 and Pontiac Grand Prix GXP.

“Vehicle manufacturers enjoy Alcoa’s quick to market manufacturing flexibility because it allows for easier vehicle customisation, which today’s consumers want,” stated Doug Dietrich, vice president and general manager, Alcoa wheel products. “NAIAS is the most significant auto show in the world and we are proud that our customers selected our wheels for their product, and the show.”
