Providing customers with a polished, professional image without buffing for hours, Peterbilt is now offering Alcoa Dura-Bright aluminum wheels that maintain their exterior finish with minimal cleaning.

The new wheels -- available for all Peterbilt models -- feature a treatment technology that penetrates the aluminum and becomes integral to the wheel, protecting against oxidation and corrosion. The treatment is not a coating or finish, and as such, peeling and cracking is eliminated.
High-pressure water from a hose and a mild detergent will wash the wheels clean of dirt, road salt, brake dust, grease and oil residue.
"Peterbilt customers take pride in the appearance of their vehicles and the image they project to their customers. The new Dura-Bright wheels will help customers keep their vehicles looking their best, and eliminate hours of time that would have been spent on buffing and polishing," says Dan Sobic, Peterbilt assistant general manager. "Additionally, customers will enjoy the benefits associated with aluminum wheels, such as lighter weight, enhanced resale value and more efficient heat dissipation for longer tire and brake life."
Peterbilt is offering Dura-Bright wheels in a high-luster polished version, available in sizes of 22.5 inches by 8.25 inches and 24.5 inches by 8.25 inches.
