GReddy assures its customers that it has ample inventory of all products for the U.S. market, and there are no production delays on new and current product lines coming from Japan. GReddy looks forward to exhibiting at the 2008 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, NV in its 20’ x 40’ booth, and will have three new project vehicles and new 2009 products on display. Representatives from both GReddy USA and TRUST Co.

> 
> _Stated GReddy Performance Product’s Kenji Sumino, “TRUST Co. LTD Japan has filed for bank protection in order to restructure. This does not affect GReddy Performance Products USA at this time. In fact, we are working on plans to assist TRUST Co. LTD Japan during this process in every way we can. We have more than adequate inventory to sustain us until TRUST Co. LTD Japan returns to full production capabilities. As more information becomes available, we will release it to the media.”_

I was waiting for someone to point that out. A’PEXi did the same thing as did BBS wheels. SSR wheels weren’t so lucky, shutting down operations for a while…fortunately Tanabe brought the brand back to life or it may have closed for good.

When you have brand as strong as GReddy, no one would let it disappear.

But the moral of the story is buy more knock-offs lets drive these companies under for good.
