GUDE has entered into a partnership with the TOHO Group in Japan. Established in 1960, the TOHO group has a market share of over 65% in Japan for OEM supply to automobile manufacturers and about 30% of the aftermarket. TOHO is the #1 wheel weight manufacturer in Japan and #3 in the world, and is now expanding with GUDE into the North American market.

TOHO's balance weights are environmentally friendly in addition to having resilient durability, corrosion resistance, and modern designs. As a pioneer, TOHO was one of the first to make lead-free wheel weights and offers a wide range of steel balance weights.
