The wheels are out of stock and we are trying to make a huge
production run of them this coming fall, but we don't have a
production date yet.

I do plan to email everyone who has emailed me about their
availability to notify them once I know for sure that they have been
manufactured and are on their way to the boat.

This time, I anticipate that there will be shipping from both the
east and west coasts, which should keep shipping costs down.

If anybody has a set of these rims that they want to sell, I have a
buyer here in DC locally who has offered $300 per wheel (!!!) for used ones.

Once the new ones come in, the price should be somewhere around $200
each new, maybe a little less.
