Blooming Prairie, July 03, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (Blooming Prairie MN June 2018) – Accuride Corporation is throwing its hat into the Minimizer Bandit Big Rig Series through its product sponsorship of Kruckeberg Motorsports.
The Indiana-based manufacturer of commercial vehicle wheels and wheel end components is sponsoring the KMS team, which will roll on Accuride wheels the remainder of the 2018 Bandit season.
“We’re really excited about this opportunity at KMS,” team owner and Bandit Craig Kruckeberg said. “Accuride’s wheels are the standard for performance by which others are judged, so having them on our KMS trucks gives us a huge advantage.”
