You read my post...smashing!! I'm so glad I couldn't find the chromeish ones in stock now!

Edit: Why are these not in stock somewhere yet?? These are perfect for my upcoming build. What am I supposed to do with this money???

I always planned to release these two in Chrome, Satin Silver and Black. Satin took a bit longer as they are processed differently. Only just notified dealers so won't be in stock for a week or two.

I assume your chrome is nickel plating or something like that, correct? What's the coating of the satin wheels?

Oh and you know me all too well because I probably will buy the satin set at some point.

The Chrome is actually Chrome, Nickel tends to be a bit gold tinted. We used nickel on the old 2.2 steel wheels a few years ago: 10 HOLE STEEL WHEELS SILVER

I'm not going to go into detail about the Satin finish but they are plated and not paint.

I hope you'll drop a nudge here once they may be available at a NA retailer near me. Not to be overly dramatic, but it could well be a matter of life and death to get a first production set of these.

Kthx.

Wait until they are listed on RPP's site and sign up for the stock notification. That's how I got my chromies.

Then I'll have to save up extra for shipping, but that'll work.

Could always try to get them from Tower, then I could work on them over Thanksgiving break when they arrive.

Do you distribute to many Canadian shops? I know GCM gets some SSD stuff, are there any others?

4.785 tall, 1.58 wide, definitely a large tire

Thank you! I appreciate it. That is a large tire, but it still looks good on your Bronco.

You can now claim that you're an equal opportunity wheel manufacturer :-)
