Later, BUZZ

We had a deal set up with Mopar to house and poss. sell wheels through there dealerships and because of the stautus of Mopar at this point we are not ready to place the order, we dont want to get into a We owe you situation and we dont want to put the order in for 4000 wheels at this point, we havent given up on producing the wheels but were going to hold off on the order until we feel more confident. Hope this help you with the direction of your project, Thanks Paul

Come on guys let Paul know you need them and are willing to commit to buy a set. It only takes 1000 car owners to make the 4000 wheel number. Let Paul know so we can get the wheels rolling. .!!!

I wouldn't doubt that if they only made 100 wheels the production cost would be in the $400 - $600 range per wheel. Just a guess, but from doing things in our business, it takes large quantities to get the price down to "reasonable". Oh I forgot, what about Ma Mopar's cut from the deal also?

When you start stamping part numbers and date codes that are before the actual date of manufacture, then you are counterfeiting the original high dollar wheels. What safeguards are in place to prevent someone from selling the as originals? I would never get involved with Chrysler. Talk to Mike @ BEA aka HEMICUDA, and get his experience with Chrysler.
