Okay guys,
Here is what I can do for all of you.
Up to 5 orders (New Gen, Rushforth combined) 10% off of retail.
Over 10 orders, 15% off!)
The official start date will be 8-10-09, and end date will be 8-21-09.
Orders will have to be confirmed with a 50% deposit, and can be held at the discounted percentage for 6 months with that deposit.
I am leaving for Hot August Nights TODAY (Aug. 5th) and will be back on Monday, Aug. 10th, which is why the start date is what it is. I will be available for questions, quotes, PM's, calls, and emails beginning Aug. 10th at 9AM!
Lets do it guys, this is a RARE occasion you are going to see Rushforths and NewGens on sale.
The sale includes ALL Rushforth desgins, as well as all NewGen designs. Including the NewGen "FIVEHUNDRED" and "LITE" that are in rendering and programming right now. For renderings, I can email them to you.
Here are the the NewGen Wheels that have already been cut: SPLITTER, DECENIO, THRASHER.

Hey Jon thanks again for the help. Sorry I had you take apart the displays. Anyways I feel very comfortable with the purchase and I feel even better that I went with the Whiplash rather then the Livewire.

Thank you Draginutz!
I'm sorry guys, but I'm out sick today with the FLU. 3 of my guys had the flu while we were in Reno for HAN, and despite the overload of Airborne, and Vitamin C, I got it too!
I'm working from home today, and will try and respond to as much email as possible.
I will post photos of my Nova in a second with the 18" brushed Splitters, and will email photos of the Lite and FIVEHUNDRED to those that asked.
I'm on a lot of Nyquil, so if I say, or email anything weird by accident, I apologize. The Flu sucks!

YES!!! Please do! I always thought the centers needed to be brushed or powdercoated on the Splitters. :yum: :yum:

After seeing your nova with 18s all around now my only problem is do I go with 17s up front and 18s out back like I was thinking or 18s all around? Thanks Jon just when I thought I had it figured out. Anyone have an opinion on what I should do on my 1963 Nova? 17/18 setup or 18s everywhere? Thanks

I asked for a quote in a different thread but this is probably the right place for it. I'd like a quote on these in 18's all around and then 18F/20R if available. PM please, looking to order very soon, like a week or so and I'd like to get in on the discount if I could.
Thanks Jon

I'm back from the dead guys. Broke a temperature of 102 earlier today, and the onslaught of Nyquil and theraflu seem to be working. If this continues, I should be back in the shop tomorrow to finalize of of these orders. Thanks for bearing with me today while I was out. It sucks being sick.

Went with the brushed splitters. 18x10, 5.5" backspace with Nitto 555R 305-35-18 for the back and 18x8, 4.75" backspace with Nitto 555 245-40-18's for the front.

So... tempting... must... not... order...
Are there any pics of the splitters that have had the powdercoat option done? :naughty: Matte charcoal or matte silver centers with a polished lip? Take some of that bling out of the picture. The brushed does a good job, but not as much as I would like for a street driven car. Brake dust sucks!

Andy...check page 4 of this thread. There's a pic with one powder coated matte black. https://www.pro-touring.com/forum/showthread.php?t=55518&page=4 You know you want to buy some new wheels and help the rest of us save more money. Your really don't want to drive the car with all that work you've done and have used wheels on there. Think of how nice it would look with a brand new set of Splitters on there.

Man, that powdercoat looks good. I'm not much for black though... but my imagination can turn it gray...

I MIGHT be interested in the Thrasher with some black on it, but the inside cap I would love to so something different like PMD.... like Ebay Item number: 170127542952 to match my car's stock rims and be a good cross between old and new rims and an 18x10 and 18x8 with 305 Nitto DR (either 35 or 45 series) and 245/45 front (or 225/45). The tires are CHEAP as hell right now and frankly I have spent so much time looking at rims and nothing I look at is perfect for the car that I can see, yet I freely admit I am severely lacking in the artisitic department.

Thanks for all the love, New Gen wheels are doing VERY well!
Even a few orders for the new designs that are only in the rendering stage! Two FiveHundred orders, and one LITE order.
Can't wait to photograph them when they are done!
Keep them coming folks!

I have a 69 Firebird that is not quite far enought along to actually measure for wheels....dare I gamble and order now? Stock front subframe with ATS spindles and Global West uppers and lowers, Narrowed rear 2.5" each side. I was thinking 18"x8" w/ 4 7/8" bs up front with 18"x12" w/ 5 1/2" bs for the rears, Rated "X" with the smoked titanium centers with the redline stripe/decal on the lip. PM me with a quote please.

I sent a PM for a quote for the New Gens with some black on em for my black 68 GTO. I also asked again about the centercap change as that is a large centercap and perfect for some custom stuff. My Viper has HRE Wheels that are KILLER with custom Viper logo on them and they look BAD ASS on black, but I could never run them on my GTO-lol. Getting a few quotes on wheels I am interested in now, but ready to drop the hammer if the price and order time is right.

It looks like 10 is the magic number based on this:

2) NewGen Splitters
3) NewGen FIVEHUNDRED
7 MORE ORDERS AND WE'RE 15% FOLKS! :git:"

15% till the end of the day today. Which to me means Midnight. If you can call before 5PM, I can process your order today. If you PM, email or call and leave a voicemail that you want in on 15% before midnight, we'll get you in!

Well, the final number was 15 orders. I received one email late Friday night.
I want to thank everyone who took part in making this sale a success. The overwhelming response to both brands is very encouraging for two new brands like Rushforth, and the NewGens. I'm very anxious to build the NewGen wheels and get back some good photography from you folks, so as soon as you can, please send some photos in for the NewGen website.
Thanks again.

I got mine last week. I know they were moving shop also so that may have delayed them a bit. Have you tried calling John?
DriverzInc
10-22-2009, 08:26 AM
Yes, moving shop has certainly put us a little behind. Most of our stuff is still in moving boxes as we are still unpacking and trying to get settled, while somehow trying to get caught up. If you call, and get voicemail, please leave a message and maybe call back too, we're trying to get caught up best we can. Wheel orders have all been put into production, so they are being built, however I have not had much time to follow up on many orders. If there are any concerns, please let me know. I'll do the best I can.
