Yes, we've been working on a full polished center and powder coating finish options. I'll have some photos in a couple of weeks.

Wheel weights are no problem, 10X18 and 12X18 for a Pro-Touring, DSE mini tub, and big big brakes? I'll mock up the wheel tomorrow and post the weights.

We've invested quite a bit of time and thought into our manufacturing process. We just added a vibrating polishing system. This can polish up to a 24" wheel. This can also polish the center section and the great advantage is that it will polish the entire piece, front, back sides, lug pockets, etc.

Formula 43 is one of the very few wheel companies to manufacture it's modular rim halves in house. This is a very unique process of metal forming, that takes years to master the programming. Our equipment, has the ability the record and playback any live changes you made during the CNC process. If you like the changes you made than this is your new program and the machine will repeat the process over and over again.

Just ask Stielow, he's been to our shop many times and it's an amazing process to see live!
