Lateral-g Forums - Rushforth Wheels Storm SEMA 2008

What a successful show for Rushforth Wheels!

First, we would like to thank the 10 customers who proudly displayed Rushforth Wheels on their SEMA show cars. This year we were represented on everything from the awesome Speed Tech 69 Camaro running 20x12s, to the George Barris Smart Car made to mimic the original bat mobile. Below are a few of the awesome cars from the event rolling on Rushforths.

We were also very happy to meet with many of you who we talk to daily here on the message boards. It is always nice to put faces and real names to online handles. It was a pleasure to meet all of you, and thank you for your support over the 2008 Year.

While many head out to SEMA just to party, we were on a mission to better our product line for 2009. We partied too, don't get us wrong, its Vegas baby! However, we definitely had an agenda for the show.

Some of the new things to look forward too is a new Rushforth steering wheel line to debut during the 1st quarter of next year. Unlike other steering wheels on the market, Rushforth Steering wheels will be race inspired, and designed and built with the serious Pro-T customer in mind. No longer will our customers have to adapt a billet half wrap wheel for street rods that looks like they are from 1995 into their 2009 G-machine. The new steering wheels will be a full leather wrap with a larger grip diameter for better performance and comfort.

Also, announced for the first time at the Pro-Touring dinner, Rushforth Wheels is proud to introduce its "R SERIES" 3pc line. We have taken the time to hire out a private contract structural engineer to scrutinize our Rushforth designs, and suggest to us where unnecessary aluminum can be milled out while not sacrificing structural integrity. R Series wheels will also be available with optional carbon fiber center caps, and titanium hardware. All Rushforth 2pc designs will be re programmed and are available in the new R-Series. We are currently building the first set for Detroit Speed and Engineering.

For more information regarding any of the above new products, or any general information on our wheels, please feel free to contact us toll free at 866-694-5940.

Thank you for all your support over this 2008 year. Its been a great year for Rushforth Wheels, and we look forward to improving our wheel line and new steering wheel line to better serve you in 2009.
