UPDATE:

Hey guys, we've looked through everyone's preferences that have signed up for the feeler list so far. Here's what we found in the data:


  • As of today we have 112 wheels worth of interest. The minimum production quantity for one size is 100 units.
  • Almost every single member on the list is willing to accept 17x10" ET25 wheels to complete their order. We have enough potential interest for the production of one size.
  • Demand for the 17x10.5" ET27 is too low for production. This deal is almost certain going to only be for the 17x10" ET25 size only.
  • It is likely that only 2 finishes will be produced. 2 finishes would cover 95% of demand.
  • Based on everyone's preferences the two finishes likely to be produced are Hyper Black and Anthracite or possibly Hyper Black and Hyper Silver.
  • A third finish is possible if total demand reaches 150+ wheels.
  • Half of those who've signed up so far have indicated they would need at least a $150 discount plus free shipping before they would be willing to purchase a set.
  • We are currently just shy of reaching the $125 discount plus free shipping. It is unlikely that $150, $175, or $200 off will be reached. If those people don't pledge at a lower discount during the payment phase then only about 50 wheels would be purchased. That would not be enough to reach the 100 unit minimum production.
  • This deal will not fulfill any orders if demand doesn't increase significantly, or if interested participants who want large discounts do not lower their participation threshold.

Recommendations to bring back the 17x10" ET25 wheel:

To bring this size back we recommend everyone pledge to join this deal with just free shipping as your required minimum discount, or at most $125 off plus free shipping.

We still have 2 weeks to get more sign-ups for this deal. With more sign-ups we can ensure the deal goes through and we may reach larger discounts.
