Pro Comp Alloy Wheels Series 1089


In the early 1990s Pro Comp got their start by making suspension components that were tough enough that they could outlast any other suspension components either off or on the road.  Pro Comp decided not to chase the trends such as hydraulic setups and building scrapers.  Instead, they focused on making the suspension systems that were able to tackle the hottest tracks and the roughest trails.  It didn’t take any time at all for that particular strategy to pay off and garner them a fan base of devoted gearheads.  Now, people who want to save their ride quality as well as their off road credibility eagerly await the next Pro Comp innovation. 

Pro Comp is able to maintain this well-earned reputation because they combine trailblazing technology with real world tested materials and the very best team of engineers in the suspension business.  The engineers at Pro Comp are not just your ordinary geniuses, they are geniuses who love performance.  These guys go beyond the lab tests and take their creations out in the real world and test them.  Places like the Mojave and the highways of LA are just two of the places where you might find a Pro Comp engineer testing something new.

Series 1089

These wheels made by Pro Comp have been engineered in such a way that they pack a powerful visual punch.  The design might be the classic 6 spoke one but there are things like a bead lock perimeter and clean grooves that give that classic look an aggressive attitude.  Additionally, it has been polished until it has a mirror finish that will be sure to turn heads no matter where you are.

Pro Comp doesn’t cut corners when they make these Series 1089 wheels.  The aluminum alloy they use is aerospace grade and then they actually carve it with a casting technique that is low pressure and cutting edge.  This gives the wheels a strength that can’t be matched.  The 1089 wheels have a high offset too which creates all kinds of clearance so that you can even use them with the beefiest brake systems.  Oh, and they come with a lifetime warranty on the structure.

Pro Comp Alloy Wheels Series 7031


Pro Comp did not make the decision to branch out into wheels until 2001.  They had started making their own tires in 1998 and wheels was just the next logical step for them to take.  By making both wheels and tires, both lines would be supportive to each other.  Right from the beginning, Pro Comp decided to make both aluminum alloy and steel wheels.  This decision was based mainly on the fact that they wanted to provide the customers with an option of buying wheels that are tough enough for the trails while giving them a proper price range to choose from – steel is cheaper than aluminum alloy.

When Pro Comp got its start back in 1992, they focused on making suspension systems that would fulfill the needs of those demanding off road enthusiasts.  They then branched out to other related areas such as shocks, tires and now wheels.  That said, Pro Comp hasn’t forgotten that they are a manufacturer of suspensions first and foremost and they continue to push the envelope with their innovative and exciting suspension systems.

Series 7031

Nothing looks more ready for the off road than bead lock rims that are pinching monster meats.  It must be said though that or your morning commute or even for light trail driving, bead locks are akin to hunting a squirrel with a bazooka – massive overkill.  However, with an 8 spoke, split design and the black powder coated finish as well as the accent studs that have been machined in order to provide that bead lock look, the 7031 Series wheels give you that off road style you crave in a package that is commuter friendly. 

Like every alloy wheel that Pro Comp makes, this wheel has been cast using a low pressure, high tech casting system.  They are made from chunks of aluminum alloy that are aerospace grade.  By using this particular material in conjunction with the casting technique, you get a wheel that is lightweight yet ultra-strong.  For the ultimate style, they have been finished with a powder coat in flat black. 

These wheels are perfect for high performance SUVs and trucks.  They feature a very high offset so that they can accommodate most big brake kits.  They come in a variety of sizes, spacings, bolt patterns and offsets so that they will be a perfect fit for most brake setups and tire sizes.  To top it all off, the matching center caps are included and the wheels are covered by a lifetime warranty on the structure as well as a 2 year warranty for the finish.

Take a quick look at these wheels and you will instantly see why dealers have a hard time keeping them in stock.

 

Pro Comp Alloy Wheels Series 7069


Pro Comp was founded in the early 90s as a company that built the kinds of suspension systems that you need for hard core off road warriors.  They weren’t about building skyscrapers or even those nifty little hydraulic suspensions but were focused on those systems that were able to conquer the hottest tracks and the roughest trails.  Before too long, that strategy proved to be the best one for them to have and they quickly gained a following of gearheads.  Now, you can find true off road warriors eagerly awaiting the newest innovations coming from the Pro Comp factory.

Pro Comp keeps their hard hitting reputation that they worked so hard to earn by combining premium materials that have been real world tested with technology that is ahead of its time and the best team of engineers in the business.  These aren’t just geeky genius engineers either, they are engineers who love nothing more than performance and they can be found testing their own creations in places like the Mojave Desert and the highways of LA.   

Series 7069

People tend to replace their stodgy stock rims with gorgeous custom aftermarket wheels in order to set their rigs apart from all of the rest.  However, if you are of the mind that trading them out for a completely new set of look-alike rims is going to accomplish this then you are dead wrong. If you really want to be in a league of your own, take a peek at the 7069 Series by Pro Comp.

This series of wheels made by Pro Comp are a member of the Pro Comp Xtreme line of wheels.  They start with raw chunks of aluminum alloy that is aerospace grade.  Those chunks are then cast using a casting system that is low pressure and high tech.  This gives the wheels a low weight but extreme strength and gorgeous style.  When the casting process is finished, they are then coated with a powder coat in flat black.

The 7069 Series wheels have a high offset for compatibility even with big brake kits that can be found on many off road rigs.  The wheels come in a wide variety of offsets, back spacing, bolt patterns and sizes in order to fit most brake setups, tire sizes and rigs.  The matching center cap is included with your purchase.  These wheels come with a 2 year warranty for the finish and a lifetime warranty for the structure.
