PPA Wheels Looking for Member input
Was hoping all on here could help us out with a little market research in order for us to order the wheels people are looking for. We currently have three designs in two finishes each; black with machined face and chrome. We ask that you take a look at our wheel lineup and let us know your top three choices. We have our favorites, but like to hear from as many as possible. For those wondering about current stock status, we have our Widow 15 and Widow 15 chrome on the way to the warehouse. As soon as they arrive, we will be letting everyone know.
Also we've been asked if our wheels will fit Spyders prior to 2013. We are working with our local dealer and will be doing physical checks on older models as they bikes become available.
Thanks
Sean

Interesting.. Like the Orb 15 chrome and then the Widow 15 chrome. Don't like the other... See Lamont about becoming a sponsor if you haven't already.
Live, Love, and Ride! God Bless!

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.

They look good thanks for some options , know from reading forum here there is a number of complaints for the valve location mainly on rear tire just a fyi, I cant speak for everyone but we like some more interesting designs but still need them ez to clean.
Know those two contradict each other.

I think they look great (especially the chrome). But for me, I am all about the ease of cleaning them. If they are easier to clean, then I will be more likely to wash them, and they will last longer.

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.

Recluse 2B for me. Would match our magnesium silver RT.

I like the Widow Chrome...will show off the brakes and be easier to clean.

I like the machined wheels, 2A, 1A, 3A preference sequence. I'm looking for new front wheels too and yours look like they'll add a nice sporty flair.
-
Thank you to all that have given their input. Please keep the comments coming. As an FYI, currently we are only focused on the front wheels as the rear is difficult to see in most cases. I agree that cleaning the rear is a pain in the butt . I can attest that cleaning on our Widow design is not an issue. Running a set on my F3 and don't have any issues using a micro fibre wash mitt.

Tough one...
I would have to go 1A, 2B, 3A if I can only pic three.. what are your favorites....??

In order to keep the price at a point that you don't have to ride with one arm after the purchase, these are all cast wheels. Prices for the black with machined face finish is $425 USD and the chrome PVD finish is $479 USD. I personally like the Widow and the Recluse designs.

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.

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).

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

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

Nice, but not my choice.
