Well, this is all the info ive gotten so far. Hes gonna email me more later. =)

Retail for 19x8.5 = $1,055. But current discount, $844/wheel, which is 20% off for introductory price. For G35 and 350Z it would be 19x8.5 and 19x10. Can do custom lips, hidden or exposed bolts. Stepped lip or traditional lip. And there are 11 more styles coming.

Thats all i know right now. im thinking of picking up the split spoke one for my sedan. or maybe we can set up a group buy with him. =)

here is the email i recieved today!!! yay!

Hi Pat,
I apologize for not getting back to you sooner, I didn't have everything ready.

Here is some key information:

-Discount-wise, I can give the 350Zers and G35ers a special introductory price of 25% off the retail price.

-Our wheels are HRE quality because we are using HRE's old wheel cutter and their current wheel finisher/painter.

-All wheels are custom made to order and the lead time is approximately 2-3 weeks which as you probably know, is significantly better than industry standard. We are trying to minimize lead time to 1-2 weeks. Of course if we are overwhelmed with orders, the lead time may increase but we will make every effort to meet or beat our quoted lead time.

-At the minimum, every 2-3 days, we will send you a list of the progress of your wheels/customers' wheels.

-Our goal is HRE quality at 2/3rds the price and first-rate customer service.

-We have a few more styles coming out in the next few weeks including a Sportec 10-spoke look 3-piece wheel.

-Currently, we can make wheels from 19x7.0 to 20x13.0 in 0.5" increments with 1.0" lip to 5.0" lip in 0.5" increments.

-We have applications just about all cars and eventually SUVs. For cars, we can do bolt patterns of 5x100 to 5x130.

-22" and 24" will be introduced in the coming months. 18" if there is enough interest. Currently there is not.

-Hidden bolt option (similar to the HRE 840 series wheels) will be available in about two weeks. It will be ~$85 more per wheel

Here is the basic retail price for 19":

Width 19" wheel

8.0" $1,075.00

8.5" $1,115.00

9.0" $1,157.00

9.5" $1,199.00

10.0" $1,243.00

10.5" $1,287.00

11.0" $1,333.00

11.5" $1,379.00

12.0" $1,426.00

12.5" $1,473.00

13.0" $1,522.00

I think the numbers he quoted were a range of 5x100 all the way to 5x130 and our rim size is in that range.
