I like both, but original is slightly cleaner.

upon second look. keep the original. The subtle curve looks better than the bridge.

I like both very much, but I like the bridges slightly more....

Ok, so I test fitted the prototypes and all cleared out well. Just minor cosmetic adjustmentsd that can barely be noticed, but still true to the original design.

I had to edit the pic since there was no tire and the car was on a lift. This is of the 20".

ChicoOG

have had the inspires, but am going to upgrade to legend type II or devotion type III...haven't decided yet. Will have 5 inspires for sale during the holidays

Damn Ron, I'm feeling the bridges. Gives it more of a unique look

CCColtsicehockey

i think should add the line through the bolts like the original design. it gave the wheels another difference to separate it from the same wheel designs from HRE and iForged.

Yeah, that was one of the small adjustments. Also made the webbing section between the spokes more 3D or slanted. Pretty much it, everything else is nice and clean. Now to have fun working with the finishes. I'm really feeling the matte silver with Matte clearcoat and a chrome lip, they compliment eachother so well. And also looking at a Liquid graphite with a diamond cut face and chrome lip, now that would be a nice mixture of surfaces.

ChicoOG

Ron...great work!! looking forward to seeing these things developed....quick question, I need to touch up some curb rash on my inspires before I sell them, do you sell touch up supplies/paints?

sorry, its a 3 stage paint, so best bet would be to match it the best you can with some automotive paint that matches best you can tell.

Question:

Are you planning on making some kind of hood? The hood in the pic is white... (along with the side skirt)

ChicoOG

Yikes, that won't do...I'll use one of the wheel refinishers. I hear Wheel Technologoies does a good job

looks more like the protectve wrap that comes on new cars

When are the Legend II 19" COMIMG OUT ?

AM 2K5

Sweet...I can't wait to see 19's with a liquid graphite center.

soon my friend, we were having trouble maki8ng the spokes clear the brake calipers on the 6 speed and type S without passing the lip. So we had to modify the profile a bit, and take a risk with testing. Hopefully it will pass and go right into production. Should be 2 months from now. Sorry for the delay, but these will be well worth it.

CCColtsicehockey

mmm make it exactly like the old face and I buy two new ones for the rear and move the rears to the front and ahve a 3 inch dish all around.

Forgot to mention, preorders get free shipping and free lug nuts. That can be up to a $150 value to California.

ChicoOG

I'm confused...which wheel is this? Inspire, legend? Sorry, I saw 2-3 new designs earlier in the thread

godizus

This is for the Devotion Type III 3-piece wheel (from the thread's title)

Bitium

I was just going to ask you about the wheel. I was surfing your website for it, but I didn't see it, so I came here and you are posting about it. Great!!!

I love the wheel, actually I felt in love with it, back when it came out long time ago. I'm glad you are bringing it back. I hope it will only bit a small change if any for the 2009 TL, of course I'm hoping it comes with SH-AWD.

What is the possibility of making a mirror lip instead of chrome ? also maybe Liquid Silver Face? like the legend type II.

Well you always seem to have good taste, so I trust your judgment. Thanks again for bringing them back. Great price for a true 3-Piece wheels, how did you pull that off??

Thanks,
Julio

Ok, got the wheels today, I must say, very impressive quality and style. I actually cursed out loud when i opened the boxes sent to me from my factory, I was in total Amazement...

On a side note, these will be in what I like to call, low rate production, we will only be making these in small quantities, but still, continuously. We found a supplier that can meet opur demand for quality at lower volumes. The first order which is scheduled to be here in about 2 months, is halfway sold out, but we will be bringing them in every 2 months. Any questions, feel free to ask, and I have to say, pics don't do these wheels justice, they are even more amazing in person.
Pricing and info will be shown here, and custom powdercoat finishing is available even tho i feel liek this finish has the most amazing visual impact.

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!! Any chance of seeing the 19's on a 3rd gen TL?

erick3

you guys do AMAZING work...

dragonlord

Boy- not feeling those at all! Too much activity, with the different finishes and the screw heads definately take away from the wheel. But that is just my . I'm sure you will sell them out.

chill_dog

I like them...very cutting-edge with the mix of finishes. They'll look unbelievable on an AM or NBP.

That was actually the idea, alot of different surfaces, to resemble a watch face lending to a more luxurious, expensive style. In this case, the screw heads (rivets) are actually required and functional, not just placed in for style. With a true 3-piece wheel, they hold the whole wheel together.

jazz_123

Yo dragon lord i think your way too OLD for a TL. Its funny! Im jocking this Ron Jon Wheels. They look damn HOT luxury. Dont like riced out at all! RON JON why soo expensive $700 a wheel!

Laxplaya11385

these wheels are gorgeous. if i didn't already have beautiful wheels, i would've copped these.

rondog

iTrader: (1)

They are 3 piece wheels, like HRE, or GFG, but alot less expensive. The other brands 20" wheel can be upwards of $1000 per wheel, but ours is $690 and $790. You have to consider the construction and materials of these wheels to understand.

Ahmad310

While ive never been a big fan of the devotion, i must say those look F#@$ing awesome......that is amazing work Ron!!!!!! Any chance of that finish on the Legend II's?
