bonspeed Apparel Featured in Truckin' Magazine

Truckin' has published the 2008 Hot Rod Apparel Guide and it is full of bonspeed stuff!

A few months ago the editors of Truckin' called and asked if they could bring some models to where we manufacture our bonspeed Wheels? What they wanted was the factory as a backdrop to shoot the 2008 apparel guide.

We swept the floors and pulled out the t-shirts, the Truckin' editors did everything else! Be sure you click on the link below and visit the Truckin' website to see the entire article.

Nothing looks better than a polished aluminum wheel, except maybe a custom bonspeed Color Forged© aluminum wheel!

bonspeed wheels was born in 1996 and has never looked back. Our styles are regularly praised as the cutting edge of wheel style and the Color Forged program that our company originated is stronger than ever.

The bonspeed Color Forged program allows customers to personalize their wheels more than ever. Now billet forged wheels can be made to accent your vehicle your way. It is personalization that makes a car a hot rod.

bonspeed boys on Hot Rod TV



If you are a fan of "Hot Rod TV" on Speed then keep your eyes peeled for re-airings of episodes featuring the "bonspeed boys"; Brad Fanshaw and Michael Anthony. The producers of "Hot Rod TV" asked the boys to work with them on three shows.

The first was the two-part coverage of the 2008 Grand National Roadster show in Pomona, California. Brad and Michael spent the afternoon walking the show commenting on the cars, seeing friends and drooling over the craftsmanship while the cameras roll.

Hot Rod TV's episode about the legendary GT-40 featured bonspeed boy Michael Anthony and his fine Ford GT. The cameo shows Michael zooming around in his personal GT, that is so fine with the massive bonspeed wheels.

The most extensive episode is a re-build of Michael and Sue Anthony's GT500 Shelby. The orange Musclecar was shipped to Gateway Classic Mustangs and the camera crew followed the action. Interviews with both Brad and Michael give a great look at the fun they have. It was all filmed at the secret Southern California warehouse that houses some of the bonspeed boys cars.

Watch Speed listings for re-airings and it will also be available on dvd.
