Damn Jon, now we know why there is a shortage of Foose wheels out there. You have them all!! New wheels look great. Its nice to see someone coming out with new designs that are not the typical "pro-touring" wheels that you see everywhere now days! Congrats and keep up the good work.:cheers:

nice work Jon, love the split spokes:D
how much would they run?? same finish 18x10 18x8 2 piece. pm me
You have a PM.
Thanks for the comments, everyone. Glad you dig them and see the efforts we're making to do it just a little differently. I'm obviously partial to my own designs but I think these might be my new favorites!
Jason or Jon,
The Wildside looks amazing :hail: My question to you is can that wheel work
on a G-body ('87 turbo Buick) with C6 Z06 brakes ??

Can you build the "whiplash" for an 08 Sierra in 20x8 or 22x9?

05-21-2008, 09:47 AM
Can i get a price on the Wildsides 18x8 19x12?
Yes, Yes, and Yes on all 3 of the last questions. Thanks again, everyone! We're so glad everyone is as stoked on the new designs as we are.
They will look great on a G-body and can be made to clear any brake system you have and 6 lugs for your Sierra are no problem either and PM sent for 18s and 19s, RJ but we will be needing a pic of all three of those rides for the website!
Thanks Jason :thumbsup:
If you don't mind, shoot me a PM with prices for a 18x8 & 18x9 combo.

In addition to Columbus, we will have a booth at all the remaining West Coast Good Guys events, including Pleasanton, and well, Pleasanton... June 1st, and the August shows respectively. Come by and say hi!

You're killing me.... I can always count on you to bust my balls, right Marty? Maybe you can come by and heckle me at the booth? And if I ever officially become a "Big Wig", I will have you write the press release!
70, No pics of the wheel on a car yet as that one is the very first one made but I can always draw your car with them, hint hint!

Hi John! OK, what design are you waiting on? Are they going on the Chevelle, or Syborg? They arent going to look like a SS rally wheel are they? Love the Bonspeeds on the Chevelle, looks like a factory custom. The color is on the money on the centers, best match Ive seen yet.

Thank you Tony,I appreciate the nice comments...pictures don't actually do it justice though,car really pops in person.:yes:
I finally have the color-matched center caps on the way so I hope that will really set them off.
Jay will post up his new design soon enough,lol...he knows what a fan I am of classic 5-spoke wheels so he came up with a design with me in mind called "Fuel" which really is quite impressive and unique...since there's not much new you can do with a 5-spoke.
I would love to swing a set...but I think I need to buy another car to put them on,lol.
Haven't figured out just how to run that by the wifey yet...:_paranoid

Very interested in "Fuel" from your description. Hopefully pics will be coming soon, I've been looking for a classic 5-spoke alternative to the TTII's for along time now.....

I'll tell you I like them alot...and I'm a picky mo-fo when it comes to wheels.:yes:
Now I just gotta find a car to put them on,lol.
Jon/Jay...you guys letting the cat out of the bag yet?:unibrow:

The Fuel will be cut this coming week and you guys will be the first to see it. It's a very clean and simple tapered 5 spoke with some cool details to seperate it from the same old billet 5-spoke but not a retro rehash of the TT II like we've all seen either.
We aren't trying to be dramatic by making everyone wait, it has just been one of a hundred things we've done this month. The most important thing being a brand new full color brochure with some client's cars and all 12 styles featured.

Please post pics if you can Jon. Once I saw you had a 5 spoke I joined here so I could see them plus my idea of how to build a car is a little more accepted here then Team Chevelle. Although a great bunch of guys and have been a huge help to me they prefer the old school look for the most part.
I am the guy that has been bugging you about wheels for my 72 Chevelle and can't decide because there are way too many options lol. Looking forward to the new wheel but the strutter is really growing on me after seeing it on a few cars.

It'll be worth the wait man,the proportions of the spokes are perfect and the little details Jay & Jon incorporated really make it stand out in a sea of 5-spokes...I just need another car to put them on:willy:

Jon was racing all over So-Cal today picking up our brand new catalogs and our new custom display racks and a dozen other things in preparation to drive to Pleasanton tomorrow for the GoodGuys show where he's going to be manning the Rushforth Wheels booth.
Hats off to you, Brother for all your dedication and hard work!

Man Jason, those wheels look killer! It has to be hard to come up with a new design for 5 spke wheels but you knocked that one out of the park! Can you get them with the grey powder coated centers like on Johns Chevelle, I believe the color is called Anthracite grey? Very close to the original color offered on the Z/28 and SS wheels of the 70s. Looking for 18x8s and 18x12s.Also, what types of back spacing will be available? P.M. if you want. Again GREAT job on the new FUEL wheel design! Tony:thumbsup:

Thanks so much, Tony! I'm so glad you dig them! Jon's Chevelle actually had brushed centers with a clear powdercoat but we can do them for you in any finish, size and fitment you need.

Jason, I just wanted to say that I was able to check out your wheels at the Pleasanton goodguy's and I absolutely loved Fuel and Wildside. You're awesome, but a bit of a jerk because you're making my wheel choice that much harder. But I guess that's alright.
I look forward to the next ones you come out with.

Sounds like he's after the finish on MuscleCarJohn's chevelle. That was a dark charcoal color. The Fuel, as well as all the Rushforth Wheels are available in any custom powder coat color, and definitley in those sizes. I think Jay sent you a quote by PM, if not, feel free to call: 951-609-3483.
Glad you like the Fuel! It's a sweet 5 spoke:thumbsup:

If I'm making your decision difficult, I'm doing my job! You can finally sleep easy though because we aren't adding any more styles this year.
Thanks again to Jon for dragging the wheel display up and down the state and spreading the good word! We also really appreciate all the support here and it's how we launched the brand. Thanks everyone!
