We do not offer GP's with our wheels. We do offer an outstanding price with fantastic customer support and warranty.

It's not about the quantity of sales, its the quality and attention that we can bring to each customer. I wouldn't want to shortchange customers with service and warranty.

It would be a logistic nightmare to even try to do something like this for custom built components...we don't have part numbers, we build each order to suit. We need to work with each customer meeting their needs. GP's work better for parts that you can say...10 of part number xxxxxxx, the customer either commits or doesn't.

Our pricing is very reasonable for our products. Against popular belief, markup is quite low.

The wheels are an outstanding value. Our product is one item that actually keeps their value, resale is very high. There will be a price-increase forthcoming...so if you or anyone else is interested, now actually may be the time to act instead of when they go up.

Trust me hes not kidding. Best customer service I've had. Plus just look at the product.



Polished to a mirror finish.


I tried to get them on gp as well, now I know why it's better they don't do them, better individual attention.

Thanks Steve.

I can vouch for the validity of Steve's customer service. Top notch! He is a book of knowledge when it comes to his products, which quite frankly sell themself. The Bogart rim is a work of art!

We do not have PM's turned on as they are too hard to follow and keep track of vs e-mails. For the folks whom do not want to call us, our e-mail link is listed below. I am even willing to call folks on our dime to answer questions...shoot me an e-mail and mention best times to call and I will due my best to accomidate you. Now to just figure out what styles to choose from...you even have more choices then OEM folks being you can consider the P2 wheels.

Yes it was sent to that address. I don't particularly care for AOL...they seem to have their filters set very high and our e-mails get kicked back to us or they get put in the customers junk-mail folder.

I just checked, it wasn't bounced back.

Good talking to you again on this Steve (I talked to you once b4 but a while ago). Ya the hardest decision now is which wheel! I was tryin to pick between the D10 and the Welded RT's but I think right now I'm leaning towards that Welded RT. Ill give yuh a call later in the week or next week with the final word

Yeah, I like the D10s too. For some reason I like the D10s better on camaros and the RTs better on trans ams. They both look good either way. Good luck with your decision, I had a hard time deciding too.

For an LS1 setup, you'll save ~12 lbs total of rotating weight. Remember the weights do vary according to how we have to build them...it is even more of a savings if we build them to drag brake needs. I can build a front runner down do 6.75 lbs each!
