Default 2010's New Trend setter in the wheel industry

Just a teaser for now, but keep an eye out for this company...Launching 9/1/09 with 5 new Three piece styles and 3 new one piece forged styles, ALL Available with concave profiles! I've seen the renderings, and all I can say is WOW. We're trying to get the Corvetteforum sales Exclusivity on this line so stay tuned.

I am still waiting for new details of the new designs and final price structure. I dont think they will be as expensive as the concave that 360 is trying to release. No updates on that either.

However do you guys think that we should not carry the line then? We usually stock orders first to prevent delays for our customers, so Jordan or not these styles look absolutely incredible and should be bringing a fresh change to the wheel industry. I mean Concave 3-piece, already in production! C'mon!

Do these just come in a 3-piece and the 1-piece wheel? Does it come in 2-piece?

As soon as I get more info I will post it up ASAP. I may go ahead and pull the trigger on a 1-piece concave set for a Z06... just to test the actual lead time for you guys

Update: got word that they're working on 3 Z06 photoshoots with 2 of their 3 piece styles and 1 of their 1 piece forged with a 20x13 race setup! The 1 piece forged race setups should be some of the lightest race / street forged wheels available. They have an option called "Comp Preparation" Where they not only pocket cut the back pads but also the rear of the spokes to reduce every kg of extra weight possible. The design of the wheels is even engineered to have as little metal as possible to make them look good but still be strong and light. These will be awesome wheels for street and track use for the hardcore guys.

Are these wheels going to be lighter than the stock Z06 wheels(spyder chrome)? Do you have a price for the 3-piece and the 1-piece wheels? Can't wait for the pics.
