I am going to ship them a Rally with the cap and ring and they are going to scan it and see about the production in aluminum. I am wondering if they look really close, would the market be the same, better, or worse. I like the idea of a 20" Rally thats all one piece and super light compared to the steel version.
They may also be able to build it so factory caps can be installed and diamond cut the lip to give it a luster to duplicate the stainless trim rings.
Please let me know what you guys think. Thanks for bearing with me fellas, this really takes alot to get rolling.
This is a heavy wall deep draw for the center. Have you checked with fabricators in the Detroit area? Not many stamping houses have enough tonnage for this app.
