The same rules have applied to our other deals.

Alright ladies and gentleman, we need a last minute push from the community! Get your pledge in while you still can.
We are down to the last 7 hours of the Group Buy and we currently have 91 wheels pledged for. If only one size is produced, then we have 53 in favor of the 17x8.5” et20, and 63 in favor of the 17x8” ET25. That’s more than enough demand to produce the 8” wheel at the lowest discount, but we need more participants to unlock these pledges with bigger discounts.
Do not make the mistake of counting yourself out already based on the results. We typically see a rush of buyers in the last few hours of every Group Buy. That’s exactly what happened with the Concave E30 deal. Don’t armchair quarterback this deal. Let the Group Buy site do it’s job and convert conservative pledges into onboard members as more sign-up.

This deal ended with zero wheels sold because most participants were only willing to buy if the highest discount levels were reached. Unfortunately, not enough people pledge to unlock even one tier, and the deal collapsed in on itself.
But there’s good news! We were crazy close to reaching the maximum discount, and if you look at the data below, we were also really close to having enough participants to produce both sizes.
ARC-8 17x8” ET25
Minimum Production Requirement: 50
Participants 1st Choice: 58
Participants 1 & 2nd Choice Combined: 75
ARC-8 17x8.5” ET20
Minimum Production Requirement: 80
Participants 1st Choice: 61
Participants 1 & 2nd Choice Combined: 73
If we can just get 11 more wheels accounted for, and reach the production minimums for both sizes, we can fulfill the deal in such a way that both sizes are produced and everyone gets the max discount. (Graph shows 115, but we actually have 119 now).
We believe it would be a lot better for this deal to just wait for 11~ more wheels than to cancel the whole deal, or at best make one size for just a few people with little to no discount. The site automatically tries to salvage the deal at the next best tier, and many of you have already adjusted your minimum discount downward as we attempt to service the most people for the best price. Because the weekend is here and we can’t work on this deal any more until Monday, we’re going to see who else would like to sign-up, and then we’ll re-evaluate the deal on Monday.
Thanks to everyone who’s been fighting to make these wheels a reality.
