OK... So I finally got all the info from Walee at MachIII, and it's superb!

Quoted text follows:
--------------------------
The offsets, size and width on the site is available to order.
Also they could be in any color available through rota.

The only problem is that rota are not willing to stock them and I don't
think I can either. So 80pc minimum and groups of 40pc for a specific size,
bolt pattern, offset and color.
--------------------------

Now what this means is that we can order any of the LISTED wheels on the rota website.

So what I'm going to do is take a blunt vote, and I'm *ONLY* going to do it on the 240sx-business list. What this means is that if you're interested in this group buy, you MUST subscribe to the 240sx-business list on Yahoo! Groups.

I'm going to set up the vote to include the following WHEELS only. This is the primary vote to knock out what wheels nobody wants. I'll tell you the wheels and give you the rota link and you can decide based on what sizes are available what you might like. PLEASE VOTE ONLY FOR THREE WHEELS.

SubZero - http://www.rotawheels.com/subzero.htm
Circuit8 - http://www.rotawheels.com/curcuit8.htm
Competition - http://www.rotawheels.com/competition.htm
Formel - http://www.rotawheels.com/formel.htm
Grid - http://www.rotawheels.com/grid.htm
Mantis - http://www.rotawheels.com/mantis.htm
MSR - http://www.rotawheels.com/msr.htm
Tuner - http://www.rotawheels.com/tuner.htm
Slipstream - http://www.rotawheels.com/slipstream.jpg

That's it. Those are the choices. Go vote. Once we get *20* people interested, I'll compile the top 3 choices, and then we'll vote on sizes.

Please don't messaging me asking about something else or if we can try and get some other wheel or whatever. Walee at MachIII.net has agreed to do this for us, so let's either do it or not. Will I try to set up other group wheel buys in the future? Yes. For now, I'm working this rota thing.

17 people have expressed interest in this so far (that's already almost the 20 sets we need).  Whether this means they'll still be committed after wheel choice, I don't know, but Walee might "cover" a few sets if it's really only a few.

Another note is that we can go 10/10 on the color (2 different colors), and polished lips are available.

What that means is that we could get 10 bronze with polish lip and then 10 gunmetal with polish lip, or even colored lips I think, but I'm sure most of us want polished.

In addition, [email protected] is going to provide me with all of the possible sizes and offsets available today or tomorrow.  Once I get that info I'll set up the vote for sizes/offsets.  If I can push for a 9H wheel with both 5 and 4x114 on it, I will try my best.

As I expected, Circuit8, SubZero, and Slipstream are in the lead, and will most likely be the ones we vote on finally.

You can email me @ [email protected] with questions.
