Thanks for offering! If you have a chance, I wouldn't mind seeing the new Grip Equipped wheel line from Ben Hermance and his new partnership with Forgeline wheels.

I won't be there, but stop by the Strange Engineering booth and check out our Floater Kit. It is undergoing testing as I type and will be available first quarter of 2013.

Thanks for stopping by the booth Al, it was a pleasure to meet you!

As far as the wheels go, even though only 7 of the 9 wheel styles were displayed due to space, they were a HUGE hit! Forgeline was already getting calls on the first day for info and orders, we're pretty pumped!

Power TV came by as well and interviewed Dave Schardt about all of the new offerings from Forgeline including the Grip Equipped designer series label. Here's a link to the youtube vid. (I tried to go easy on Dave for the mispronounciation of my name though we all agreed it sounded far more exotic!)

As far as pricing...high quality forged 3 piece wheels can't be compared to the typical cast 1 or 2 piece billet wheels that are dramatically inferior in construction, engineering, strength, weight-savings, custom fitments, serviceability, available finishes and overall quality. These are highly stylized, premium quality, forged 3 piece wheels with some vintage influence. Most 3 piece wheels are no more than an array of holes punched out of a center forging that lacks detail and individuality. With the custom finishes available, Grip Equipped wheel designs are flexible enough that they can be creatively accented to achieve a wide range of unique looks. They offer a lot of value at very competitive prices.
