I caught Richard @ Halibrand today. Said he'd call me right back. No word.
On Friday, Fran said he'd call me Monday. No word.
As of Friday, Fran wouldn't take a deposit.
I think we'd have better luck asking the Kirkhams to machine a set out of billet magnesium.
I'm willing to commit for a set (or two), drum up some interest from potential buyers (with this thread) and even do some hand holding
with the guys whose business this is, but I'm not going in to the wheel business.
It's not over yet.
