About us

Driven by Innovation. Built for Performance.

For over two decades, Blackstone Tek (BST) has led the global evolution of carbon composite wheels — combining racing passion with aerospace precision to create the lightest, strongest, and safest wheels on the planet.

Our Story

Born From Racing. Perfected for the Road.

Our drive toward the future is powered by a team whose experience runs deep into the past.

Blackstone Tek (BST) is where vision meets precision — a meeting of minds that redefined performance engineering.
Gary Turner, BST’s design and production genius, began his journey racing in the European Supermono Series in the mid-1990s. His pursuit of speed and control evolved into a passion for building something even faster — something lighter, stronger, and smarter.

Alongside him, Terry Annecke, a global business strategist with a background at IBM and Microsoft, brought structure to ambition and scale to innovation. Together, they lead a world-class team with over a century of combined expertise across motorsport, aeronautical and F1 engineering, composites, and high-end wheel manufacturing but It’s their shared obsession with progress that truly sets BST apart.

At BST, we don’t just imagine the future — we build it.
We challenge physics and convention alike: creating a wheel that’s lighter yet stronger, faster yet safer, and engineered with both beauty and precision. Each design is a paradox made real — a fusion of science and art, mathematics and motion.

We didn’t just break the mould.
We shattered it.
