Alcoa (NYSE:AA) invented the forged aluminum wheel in 1948 at which time Mack became one of their very first customers to place Alcoa wheels on their vehicles. Tim Myers, Alcoa Wheel Products Vice President and General Manager for Commercial Vehicle Wheels was quoted as saying, “This contract extension with Mack is a continuance of a relationship that dates back nearly 60 years and we could not be more pleased.” Myers went on to add, “The Mack and Alcoa brands are synonymous with strength and durability which has also come to define this relationship.”
