We're on course to have wheels completed by the end of July (summer is vacation season in Germany...)
Those are sick looking. I can't wait. They will complete my 3.9L build perfectly -- I'll continue to break the motor in on the boat anchors and then get these and the PSC2's to shoe them.

Wow. Thanks SO much for all the hard work to make this deal happen.

There was a completely different pic in your post a few days back. Looks good now.

This is the one we're going with. Had a bit of a language barrier, but we got it sorted. These spokes are the same as the center lock wheels we all like...

Updates!

Designer is back from vacation and finished the 9.5x19, 12x19NB and 12x19WB fitments. I'll PM you all the pricing for signing up early. Need to start collecting the money for these. Need 20% down to get started. I can take visa/mc, wires or paypal (you pick up the fees)...

I'll PM with the specifics for each of you.

I'll also be putting up renders of the wheels in the next day or two.

1. Jamie_GT3: Set D in Gloss Black
2. BMWTYE: Set B in Motorsports Polish (add $600)
3. BeakerGT3: Set A in Motorsports Silver
4. /Five: Set A in Satin Black (add $600 custom color)
5. Rocketman: Set C in ??? (assuming motorsports silver)
6. E46/997 Guy: Set A in Motorsports Silver
7. ammo_collector: Set C in Motorsport Silver
8. Fongster : Set c in motorsports silver
9. Nizer: ???
