Friend of a friend is a VP at CCW. I can see what a set of staggered 18" phones dials would go for if you guys are really interested.

... I actually prefer the flat phone dials, unfortunately only came in 15's --> an 18" set would look awesome!

Dan: You can increase the number of poll options when you set-up the poll.

I think I would vote for phone dial, or a variation thereof, as well.

Wow I missed that one. I saw only 4 poll options. Are you saying you can increase that number? If yes, how?

Really suprised at the interest in the Phone Dials. Seems people either love them or hate them.

I wonder if CCW could make 18 inch 3 piece wheels that would allow us to interchange say the Cup II style for the Phone Dial style. For me it would have to look like a one piece wheel when it was all bolted together. I am not a fan of seeing the hex head bolts that hold three piece wheels together.

I really like the idea of having interchangeable components with a one peice look. One day Phone Dials, next week Club Sports, the week after Cup II's. That would be wheel nirvana.

Edit: I bet there would be a lot of interest from the 944, 968 and 911 crowd as well, especially in a 3 piece configuration that would allow for many different wheel widths and offsets. Could be a way to gen up a large group buy that would offset a lot of the initial start up cost.

Swaped my '16 Phone Dials for '17 Cup II's. Still love the look of the Phone Dials, but they did not have enough rubber. 18's would be awsome!

Maybe phone dials, but more likely I would be swayed by whatever factory wheel I could find as a take off cheap and fit well in one of the larger tire diameters.

When I first got my 928, I wanted to retro from dish to phone dials.

Real phone dials in 18" would be fantastic.

Otherwise, D90 or Club Sports.
