BIG NEWS!
****UPDATE**** These wheels are going to be made available sooner then anticipated! The wheels should hit the warehouse on or about Feb 18th. There will still be some time needed for the final prep and coloration but this is far sooner then we anticipated (which is good news). If you are interested in a set don't just sit and watch! Get that set purchased and paid for!

That's great news Sean! I wanted(but could not afford) these wheels first time around and was not happy that they went out of production for our Vmax's. Thanks to Sean they are back in a limited run, with a can't-be-beat introductory price! Radials here I come!

Got a few tires in to prepare for the arrival of the new wheels!

verge?

 

[Redbone]

verge?

That's what my inner mod monkey is telling me too. Fronts are 120's, I wonder if the rears are 200's?

 

[one2dmax]

Yes and Yes! More pics when we get them mounted up!

Anyone looking to sell their rear wheel now then? I'm in market for one, however, I can't afford to buy the double set right now. Sean already has my money for the trans mod lol....

If you have an 18 inch rear wheel for sale let me know. Either [email protected] or [email protected]

Thanks in advance. It might help offset the cost of those wicked looking Carrs..... wish I had more money lol.

Thanks and sorry for hi jacking the thread.

Only a couple of days left for the "intro" special. We'll still have sets but the price is going up. To get the intro price just get in contact with me and we'll work it out!

man, I really like those titanium grey's and the satin blacks. Don't know if I could actually afford buying a set of these but if Santa would please remember me for 2012, I'd surely be grateful....

 

[one2dmax]

LOL, the first wheels have made it to the customers! Get your order in! There should be plenty to make a year or two but they have been selling well so don't wait longer then you need to!

Shoot us some pics when they are mounted.

Amazingly light! I would put them on par with carbon wheels

Brian, finished welding on the shock mount for the offset bracket use yesterday. Just need to finish up the brake mount and get it coated! I am thinking we are going to make a custom set of nuts for the shock lower mounting to also double as the spools. Should be pretty cool what we plan to do.

Well do sir! Many pictures from taking out of the box to installation how-to then onto the gratuitous overkill on the pictures, you know "...with the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one...":biglaugh:
