    Cheers.
    Thanks for the update. These will be worth the wait. I think we will be switching to 15's for '09 so the timing should be about right for us.

    Thanks - Jon

      Subscribing... Those are the wheels I want. Hopefully they will be available in a dark graphite color.

        Pretty sure that the initial color offering will be carbon gray. I don't know when/if they will be offered in other colors but I've provided input on the other colors that people expressed interest in here.

        Cheers.

          I'll see if I can get a few shots and release them. Cheers.

                  15x7 are 12.9 lbs? Why could they not be an ounce or two heavier!!!!!!

                    Do they weigh them with or without balancing weights?

                        Weigh them when you get a set, most weights on websites don't accurately reflect the real weight of the wheel.

                        The website says 9/15/08 for the inital batch.
