PPA Wheels Looking for Member input

[jcthorne]

I like the design of 3A Orb, but it needs a machined face, not just all flat black. It needs a bit of contrast.

They are nearly identical to recent corvette wheels.

Recluse 2A gets my vote.

I agree, that wheel looks more like real spider legs on the angle shot.

ppawheels @ #26: "Yes we are working on a 17" wheel. I am holding off on releasing all the details until I have my off tool samples and I can perform some road testing. We decided on 17" and not 16" due to the offering of tires that would not cause NANNY issues. Finding a 16" tire that would still fit under the fenders and similar diameter was the issue. We did find 17" tires that will fit and are only slightly larger in diameter then the stock 15". My concern, and it was mentioned by a member as well, is that the side wall height will be approximately only 3" and may cause some issues with driveability."

I'm looking at new tires, and there aren't many options in the stock size that fit under the tight fender. So my first thought was, why not go the other way and develop a 14" wheel? This way, you might also still be able to retain more sidewall. A 14" wheel might give us more options WRT that close-fitting fender.

I'm not a fan of the super-thin tires I see on some jacked-up urban vehicles nowadays. A sidewall is part of the suspension system, as it flexes a bit to absorb bumps. So I'd rather see more tire options that offer useable sidewalls.

My vote is for the Widow (because it looks easier to clean), in black. Not a fan of the chrome finish. I also looked at your site and think the price is very reasonable. My $.02.

well here are my opinions & questions:
first i think your wheel really do look great.
1) are the chrome wheels plated or pvd?
2)are the wheels u.s. or china production?
3)where is the chrome done?
4)what is the finish warranty on both chrome & non chrome & is it paint or powder?
5)is your price per wheel or pair.

as for the plus 2 build i personally think it might be too harsh of a ride and will cause problems as i would expect
the tire for my rts would have to be a 165x40R17 or perhaps a 185x35R17 neither of which i believe are currently
made.

again i think the wheels look great, best of luck

These really look great. My choice would be the Widow and then the Recluse. Don't really care for the Orb. I am a fan of chrome but the black is eye catching with the machined face. For my spyder I think the chrome would look better...give it a little more pop.

You guys must be doing something right. I just went on your site and it says everything is sold out.

Oops, just saw your post above on why everything says sold out.

[bscrive]

I am interested as well to know if the price is per pair or per wheel?

Our wheels are made in China as are the OE wheels on your Spyder. Very difficult to find a casting wheel manufacturer in N.A that will run low volume at a price that works. I've been working with my supplier for several years and am confident in the quality. The chrome is PVD, the black is painted. We warranty our coatings for one year from date of purchase and cover peeling and separation from the wheel. As for the price, the price is per set (2 wheels).

After much debating with myself: I prefer 1B, and 2B.
It's gotta be shiny!

[bbodah]

Desgn 1B for me , love the chrome, looks easy to keep clean!

[_..stiffler..]

Love the black wheels. All if them.

I've been looking for f3 wheels to purchase for my 2011 rt with 14 rims.

If these are avaliable I'll be looking at these instead. 425 for 2 wheels isn't bad. I thought it was per wheel.

My interest is hyped.

When are they ready for sale?

Says they are all sold out on the site.

Thx

Thanks for your input . Became a sponsor last week. Maybe easier for people to give their input if I add this image. Please share your thoughts on the designs.

I'm not a bling person so considering that, I like the Orb the best. The recluse I strongly dislike, looks too much like spider legs and I have no adoration at all for anything spider, with an 'i'. I'm not crazy about the chrome either.

Lets get peoples opinions on this one. This is the Orb design with the machined face. I really like this better then the all black but that's my opinion. What do you all think, this one or the all black?

I like it!

[hondagal]

Orb machined = awesome! Changed my mind, my new favorite is this wheel. [emoji106]

[Bob Denman]

Nice, but not my choice.
