If it's under $2500 for 18 lbs I'll be all over it. Gloss black is a much better choice that stupid matte black and gunmetal.

A. Matte black gets dirty fast because of the surface finish
B. Gunmetal: Rota trademark color.

I think I'd go with a Hyper Blurple color with beamish silver accents.

On the serious note: anything glossy i think is IN on the Sexy side. IE. Hyper Bronze RE30s are sick....I think the Wedsports wheels in BLC look ****. So, glossy Black would be nice.

Think about it though: Hyper Blurple looks kinda blue but a bit darker with hints of like a beamish silver/gunmetal tint gloss. It'll be the talk of the JDM community, errone is going to be on these rims nuts.

I have always like matte black because I DON'T like shiny bling from rims. Also, I don't give an eff about cleaning so matte hides break dust better lol! My vote is matte black w/ blue or red accents in either 18x9.5 +22 or 18x10. I would consider either at a nice price. Thanks!

OK the size and color are set!!!! 18x9.5 +22 Gloss Black Red accents Standard with the option to change it out to gold, blue or pink.

Side note:
Actually we are open to doing a 18x10 +19 in the future, but we are going to release this version first. We could do a different color and that crazier offset if this wheel generates some interest. On this wheel we are pre-ordering 5 sets regardless of deposits. The 18x10 +19 version would require at least 4 confirmed buyers. When we let the cat out of the bag, then everyone can decide if a 18x9.5 +22 would be a viable option for the rest of the community. Please stay tuned.


This....

WILL BE AWESOME

How much will each wheel weigh and what do they look like? I am extremely picky with wheels as most people are. Don't know how much longer I can say I'm interested without pics and wheel weight. If they are over 18lbs a wheel I am most definitely out unless they are at a nice price and look siiiiiick. Let's see em!!!! Lol

Here is the thing they will weigh no more than 18 lbs each and the rendering is almost done for us to put up. The thing is that we can't post it toooo early cause there are other companies out there that will copy this idea. So when we have a delivery date of the 5 sets we will throw pics up and take orders. These wont be for the faint of heart, these will be for the hardcore of the hardcore and for the guys that KNOW what a name brand wheel stands for.

IT will be AWESOME!
