once i complete the order with the manufacturing company, i will then build a jobber and retail price list. Advertising will be done in Honda Tuning magazine at first to conserve pricing, so these wheels will be pretty affordable. this is the way I should have done it from the beginning, but I guess It takes time to see the light, lol. thanks for the spell check dude.
Ant, they are high pressure cast, not forged, to keep cost down. forged maybe inb the future...

that accord looks hot as hell with that body kit.
is there really a market for something like this though? Do you think you will sell enough of them if they are honda\acura specific? There are so many other companys out there that manufacture wheels that will fit honda\acura.

this is the selling point:
the wheel specs are as close to OEM as possible, considering the width increase. also the center bore is hubcentric, extrememly rair in the aftermarket industry. this means no vibrations at speed and no hubrings. also the high offset will allow meatier tires to fill up the wheelwells. I can give ballpark prices based on my pricing, without calculating the advertising...
17" hyp-sil= $200-250ea
18" hyp-sil= $280-330ea
19" hyp-sil= $350-400ea
tire and wheel packages will be available when i hook up with some dealers in different areas. I'm also not sure if i should do chrome at all, it seems like that would be so minimal for this area of the market...

production already is underway, the manufacterer is building the CAD engineered drawings now and the first container should get here in March, I'll post when they arrive with all the info... thanks for the support guys... And the prices will only get better, i posted the highest prices hoping that the will be less expensive when i calculate everything, so don't worry about those prices too much.

"if you own an an acura or honda vehicle, than you should not have to"
there is an extra AN and change THAN to THEN.
resumes come into our store and i find mistakes all the time.

But in all honesty I like the LaRubia's the best.
I would definately buy these if they would fit on a CL.

So, these are going to available in chrome correct? Also, with that offset what is the widest a mildly lowered CL-S run without fear of rubbing. Both are very pimp looking and I would seriously consider them ,they are some of the cleanest wheels I've seen so far. Also, any guesses on weight for each wheel in 18 & 19's?
