Revolution Wheels, one of the leading manufacturers of Motorsport wheels have put their support behind the top British national rally championships as they celebrate their 41 st anniversary with the introduction of the all new ‘ALLU-LITE' rally wheel range. This process utilises both casting & rim forming to give improved strength whilst maintaining optimum ductility & up to 25% weight reduction. The first sizes to be manufactured using the ‘ALLU-LITE' technology will be 7.0 x 15 & 8.0 x 18 which will be available in April 2008. Additional sizes will be added to the range during the year. 

Revolution Wheels are supporting both the Pirelli National Gravel Rally Championship and the County Saab Scottish Rally Championship in 2008 as the company aims to become the market leader in supplying rally wheels country wide.  The nature of this support will include discounted prices to registered competitors, free wheels to a ‘star' driver on each round and special prizes for marshals on every event. 

Sales director Warren McKiernan, himself an enthusiastic rally co-driver, is determined to put something back into Motorsport; rallying is not a cheap sport, so if we can offer competitors an affordable product that is both strong, durable, and yet light weight, then I'm sure everyone will be more than happy.' 

The ‘star driver' on every round will be the driver, competing on Revolution Wheels, whose event has been deemed ‘most outstanding' by a judging panel consisting of the championship co-ordinators and a representative of Revolution Wheels. Their prize will be 5 free Revolution Wheels of the size & design that they are currently using. On top of this the leading driver and co-driver on Revolution Wheels at the end of the year will receive the Revolution Wheels Trophy. As well as these fabulous prizes, all registered competitors will be offered the opportunity to purchase Revolution wheels at a reduced price.

Further to the aforementioned incentives all registered drivers will receive a rally bag whilst a further 5 rally bags will be put into a marshals draw on each round ensuring that these most valuable of volunteers are not left out either.ANCRO spokesman Rick Smith commented “Revolution Wheels are part of the fabric of British Rallying, in my days of co-driving (some years ago), I always felt safe if my drivers car had them fitted! So now it is even more pleasing to welcome Revolution to the Pirelli MSA gravel Rally Championship, as a key support marketing partner”

Revolution Wheels has a long history of supplying motorsport wheels to some of the top drivers in the world with the likes of Pentti Airikkala, Stig Blomqvist, Russell Brookes, Tapio Laukkanen, Austin McHale, Alistair, Colin and Jimmy McRae, Tony Pond and Ari Vatanen having all used the product in the past.
