Descerning
When RAM faced a major model change to the 1500, they needed to breakout in a competitive marketplace with multiple unique models. Lacks collaborated with RAM to innovatively employ our finish technologies and manufacturing expertise to establish harmonious trim level stories across all decor touchpoints.

One beautiful layout was made into several distinct models with the introduction of new colors, textures and finish technologies to achieve unique trim level themes. Differentiation is turnkey because every finish we offer is designed to work with any component you need.
Resolving Complexity
Reduce part complexity without sacrificing design details, addressing packaging requirements, reducing assembly costs, and decreasing field issues and BSRs.
Trim Level Management
Lacks wheel solutions decouple design from engineering requirements allowing for increased design variation and a shortened life cycle.
Precision Decoration
Custom 3D details were added to individual trim components to highlight each model's story.
Partnerships
Working in close partnership with the FCA RAM team allowed Lacks to employ our Chromtec®, XPOSE® and eVolve® technologies to achieve the desired weight reductions and optimize aerodynamic benefits while realizing the dimensions and styling cues FCA designers were looking for. With Lacks full composite, insert, and aerodynamic wheel trim system options, a full spectrum of design, trim level and life cycle variations are possible.
Drive You
Lacks is continually innovating to help our partners balance their performance needs with their styling aspirations. We manufacture solutions to enable both. From aerodynamic solutions to light-weighting capabilities, success is when every finish impresses and inspires.
