Just got these back from the powder coater. This is one of my favorite wheels from the Rushforth line so far, and they look just as good powder coated as they do polished.

I'm even more convinced this is the right wheel for my own project.
What do you think?

Thanks guys! As soon as my scanner is back up and running, I'll scan Jon's final draft of the Road Runner so he can take down that dirty old rough draft! LOL

That is definitely my favorite wheel of my line so far and was looking for something versatile and timeless that would work on all kinds of cars.

And the "Official Rushforth Wheels" site is up and running thanks to Scott's talented efforts! www.rushforthwheels.com

I should have the wheels welded and ready later today. I'll shoot some photos as soon as possible, and post them up. Glad you guys like the wheel design!

Wheel needs to be wider :) J/K

Looks great. I like the style and powdercoating.

Here's the wheel all welded and ready to ship to the customer. I was able to snap this shot before we had to box and ship.

Thanks, those are for Kreations Auto Body (guys who built that blue and silver two tone cuda two years ago for SEMA which was in my Budnik booth.)
They are for a Charger.

Cap engraving turned out nice... especially over the black powder coat. The production caps will still be .5" shorter.

This whole thing has been a little surreal but even more so when you see your name on a centercap! Jon and I are working our tails off but it's cool to sit back and see the fruits of our labor like a killer looking 20x12 with the logo engraved in the centercap being sent to a long time design customer taking the leap with us on the new venture.

Thanks for the love, everybody!

VERY nice looking wheel! Will there be any center cap options? I think i would like it even better with a domed center cap that sits in more

there is another cap in the works that is 0.5" shorter with a different taper. We feel that this will really set off the look of our designs.

thank you,

What kind of a price range will these bad boys fall into? It's finally time for my project to get some shoes!
