Our Legacy
Founded in a Kansas City garage in 1967, WELD is the result of a relentless pursuit of speed, durability and safety.
Highly successful Sprint Car driver Greg Weld was unable to find the right combination of strength and performance in wheels that were being made, so he decided to make his own. Fifty years later, a lot has changed but the values of WELD remain. Our production facility is less than a mile from Pappy Weld’s Speed Shop where Greg’s race cars were built, and his passion for performance continues to fuel the company today. Innovation lives on in our industry leading products and relentless pursuit of speed and strength.
WELD is an engineering performance driven company that lives and breathes racing through leading edge designs and real-world results. WELD Racing has dominated all levels of drag racing and oval racing. Weld Racing's wheels can handle the power and speeds of over 330 mph and are made from the highest-grade forged aluminum. WELD Street & Strip aftermarket wheels are born on the track using the same forged alloy as WELD’s Racing wheels. WELD’s iconic aftermarket wheel styling has the right look for classics, muscle, pro touring, or modern muscle car. WELD’s aftermarket wheels are precision engineered to improve acceleration and braking with unmatched quality and styling. The WELD Offroad & Truck wheels are strong, well-engineered and high precision built forged wheels.
All WELD wheels are designed and engineered in the United States of America.
In 2014, WELD acquired CCW, a sports car wheel company founded on the need for a better road racing wheel. Today, CCW is known as a leader in forged road race and tuner street wheels. WELD became a manufacturer of carbon fiber wheels in 2015 through the acquisition of off-road carbon wheel pioneer, HiPer Technology. WELD was able to develop HiPer into a diversified provider of technology-based performance wheels across a wider range of ATV customers.
In early 2017, WELD merged with the MOMO Automotive Group to form one of the industry’s largest high performance and motorsports powerhouses: MW Company
