The Carlstar Group announced today it intends to globally increase prices on its styled wheel products up to 8% effective on or before February 1, 2018.

The increases will impact all wheel products that are sold globally under the Cragar®, Black Rock® and Unique® brands. The increase will also impact steel wheel components.

The Carlstar Group cited significant volatility in the prices of steel and aluminum materials due to supply constraints as the primary reason for the increase.
