17" Wheels, Tires, adapters starting @ $1,449!

We have been working with a manufacturer of the adapters we have on our car and a major wheel company and have put together a complete set of good quality wheels, Yokohama tires, hub centric wheel adapters and hardware. The wheels will have custom caps and come mounted and balanced ready to put on your Smart. They will ship out directly from the wheel manufacturer warehouse ready to go within 48-72 hours.

These are the first pics we have. Higher quality pics with the wheels and tires mounted will be available within the next couple of days and we will update this thread. We have had a ton of interest and questions on these upcoming sets. In order to satisfy everyone's curiosity we decided to give you a small preview of what will be available by this weekend for your Smart.

Here is the first set - It will sell for an introductory price of $1,699 (plus shipping)



Here is the second set - It will sell for an introductory price of $1,599 (plus shipping)



Here is the third set - It will sell for an introductory price of $ 1,449.99 (plus shipping)



Thank you...

I don't think there are nearly enough lugnut holes in those first two wheels. Is it possible to get a few more?

Your pal,
Meat.

LOL! Good one and so early in the morning! :-)

By the looks of it no more holes can fit! LOL!

Seriously, they are good looking wheels (in our opinion).

I agree that they are indeed good looking wheels, and I will certainly be ordering a set when my Schmarts (finally) come in.

It's good to see a vendor that stands behind their products and supports not only their customers, but their niche in the automotive industry with positive posts and excellent information. I've watched your company for some time now, and I'm pretty damned impressed by you guys.

Now all I've got to do is see that Kuhl body kit mounted so that I know if it's (yet another...) expense I have to endure for the love of the Smart.

Your pal,
Meat.

Why are there so many holes?

Do the wheels stick out very far being 7.5's?

Do they rub?

One more question?

"The wheels will have custom caps and come mounted and balanced ready to put on your Smart."

Does that mean they will include sensors too?

Thank you,

Chris
