Edson Introduces New Lightweight Wheel for Performance Powerboats and Racer/Cruisers

Edson’s “Diamond Series” line of lightweight aluminum racing wheels have been a fixture on performance boats and racer/cruisers for over 15 years. Now Edson has added a new style to the series called the “Double Black Diamond”, featuring an all new 3x2 six spoke configuration.

Available in 48” (1220mm) diameter, the wheel is built using the same airfoil-shaped aluminum spokes as the original Diamond Series wheels, but features a redesigned spoke arrangement to make it lighter and more elegant. Since the Double Black Diamond Wheel is constructed entirely of aluminum, it is far lighter than stainless wheels of similar size at a fraction of the cost of a carbon wheel. The wheel is black powder-coated and comes with Edson’s Gray ComfortGrip™ Leather Wheel Rim Cover for a secure grip in all conditions.

The “Double Black Diamond” is a direct replacement for existing Diamond Series Wheels with either 4 and 5 bolt hub patterns, including all model year J-105s and J-120s. It was featured on Rod Johnstone’s new J-105 at the J-Boat Rendezvous in Maine and will be a standard feature on all J-105’s ordered with the wheel option built by Waterline Systems.

Retail price for the 48” “Double Black Diamond” wheel is $2655.00 including gray ComfortGrip leather rim cover. Product #642BD-48CG-GRAY.
