Not Ranked

I just heard from Halibrand. When they make 427 (or any other style of) wheels, they make them in batches of at least 100 of each size. That would mean 50 sets since the fronts and rears are different sizes. The price for the fronts is $765 each and the price for the rears is $795 each. While M&A Castings was interested and make great wheels, I am not sure that they would come in at this price point.

While we probably cannot get pre-sale orders of all 50 sets, it certainly would help bump this project up the Halibrand production ladder if we could get a strong indication of how many would be interested.

The wheels would be 15X8(f) and 15X10(r) (each a half inch wider than stock) pin drive.

Are there any takers?
