Yes black is a bit boring, but also a color that is popular with most. We had to pick a mainstream color because we are purchasing these regardless of pre-orders. We would be willing to make a run of mag blue or takata green if 5 people step up to the plate with not extra charge for special color. We can even get crazier on the offset.

The wheel is BBK friendly for sure, that was a requirement, but remember on some BBKs the diameter is the limitation not the offset or spoke design.

Oh, and PM me a price please.
Sorry about that, we made a mistake and have it corrected now.

Don't forget we are offering a special on Hankook tires with the wheel purchase. There is a rebate going on the K110 V12 tires, $60 back.

What is the pricing & does the picture properly depict the look? Will it really be concave? How is clearance for Spoon/aftermarket calipers?

from gruppe-s response, it will not have a concaved face due to the high offsets of the wheels. my best guess is that it will have a standard flat faced offset with the sizes that they are offering.

Sorry the picture was just a rendering, these wheels in this color have never been made and this TE37SL has never actually been made in this offset and size. We are the first to offer a TE37SL in this size, offset. The current TE37SL has not been released in gloss black. So the S2K community is really in for a special wheel.

Since the wheel is designed for big brakes and the offset is 49, there is no way we can do concave. It should look like the typical TE37s you see on S2ks

Thanks for the response. Some actual pictures once the product is finished should help give a visual perspective of how these would sit on an S.
