How about if the lead guy lists the different wheels and prices and hub choices so we get the real picture.
By the way, anyone have those pictures of mounted 360 and 340 wheels so we can see the gauge obstruction factor?
Oh yea, does the distance you have to reach to the wheel change with the new one?

Mr. Sullivan, no offence meant , my good man, you're probably just a lot smarter than I am. Since this is supposed to be a group buy that is hopefully going to save us some bucks, it would be nice if the guy that started this would get back on here with some finalized figures so we could decide and get on with it. Hell, I can go to the web site and buy a wheel tonight if I want to, but that kind of defeats the purpose of the group buy. So far I haven't seen any deal for the bulk sale unless I missed something. Clue me in please. This thread has been up here for 3 or 4 weeks now and when I PMed the lead guy, I never got a response.

Does anyone who has an interest in this, know this guy "jdistefa". Is he out of town or has he just lost interest? If anyone knows him, could you get in touch and see if he has anything worked out? Thanks.
Looks like about 14 interested people for this.

Guys, I'm so new to this whole thing and I have no contact with the sellers at all. We are better off either finding out what's up with "jdistefa" or having someone who has dealt with these sellers before and knows how to get a good deal from them. Thanks for the vote of confidence but I'd like to see all of us save some money. Any of you other guys ever deal with Gert or does Viper Bob have access to the steering wheels. Anyone know?

With 15 people, I figure depending on which model each person buys, that's between $10,000 and $15,000. Should be room for a nice discount, considering that each wheel is just a couple small pieces of leather wrapped around a couple pieces of metal. You know as well as I do that it's mostly "PORSCHE" tax! One of these sellers should be glad to pick up that kind of cash in exchange for discounts to loyal Rennlisters. What do you think?
