FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Accuride Corporation Announces Sale of

Bostrom® Seating

EVANSVILLE, Ind. — January 31, 2011 - Accuride Corporation (NYSE: ACW), a leading manufacturer and supplier of commercial vehicle components, today announced the sale of its Bostrom® Seating division to Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: CVGI).

“Since acquiring Bostrom Seating as a portion of our 2005 acquisition of Transportation Technologies Industries, Inc., we have continued to build Bostrom’s brand recognition within the industry.  Today, Bostrom’s seats are well-known for their comfort, reliability, and style,” said Bill Lasky, Accuride’s President, CEO, and Chairman of the Board.  “While Bostrom is a solid company with strong customer demand for its products, the seating market is inconsistent with our focus on structural, drivetrain, and wheel-end products for commercial vehicles.  The Bostrom Seating brand and people who are transferring with it will be much better served with CVG’s ownership and diversified product focus on cab systems and components.”

“This acquisition further expands our North American presence in certain key end markets and enhances our overall aftermarket position with the addition of the Bostrom Seating brand of products,” said Mervin Dunn, President and Chief Executive Officer of Commercial Vehicle Group.  “Bostrom’s product offering and position in the commercial vehicle seating market, along with our existing operations and strong National and KAB Seating brands make this a strategic opportunity for us.  We look forward to working with Bostrom’s employees, customers and suppliers as we move forward together,” added Dunn.

BMO Capital Markets acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Accuride on this transaction.
