Happy to be back!!

Cheers,

Hey Danny, nice to see you're back! I've got a quick question; I'm ordering up some lug nuts and am wondering what I need. 60° Conical seat, Shank, 45° Conical seat, conical seat with shank, ect. I'll admit I'm lost!

The easiest thing to do is order lugs that are direct replacements for your car. Our wheels are machined to accept factory lugs. However, to answer your question, if I'm not mistaken, you should have a 60* conical seat.

Sale is still on! This means our 18" and 19" wheels are about $1,000 less than normal and our 17"s, while not quite as deeply discounted, are still quite a bit cheaper... Contact me for detailed pricing.

Thanks for the welcome back! The average build time really depends on the time of the year and resulting volume of orders we're taking. As of right now, we're landing between about the 5-6 week mark. In slower times, we range between 3-4 weeks.

The Chromas were actually recently discontinued - They need to come off our website. It was a very poor design that was released under the company's previous ownership. As for the finish you saw, it's actually less brilliant than our full face polish finish we offer on our entire Profil and Classic lines.

Thanks, Brent! Yeah, the plan is to stay around. Tried another avenue and just didn't enjoy it nearly as much as I enjoy doing this.

Looking forward to seeing the final product!

Hey fellas are the full polished wheels a pain to polish like CCW's?

Also does anybody have any pics with the center portion of the Profil 10's painted...preferably black?

If it's the Profil 10 you're after, in a full polished finish, then yes, they are a bit tedious. However, if you did a black anodized center with polished outer, they're a breeze to keep clean. Don't have a photo of a black centered Profil 10 on an F-body, but I attached a couple of photos of this arrangement on a 997TT. Let me know what you think.

Got your PM and replied to it too.
