The day you have been waiting for. MHT Chicanes announced for production. and more.
Hey guys, the MHT Chicane wheels have finally been announced for production!
So, I need some input from you guys. So far, they have been approved in 18x9 and 18x10 sizes. Your choice of 4-lug or 5-lug. Standard offsets will be 0 and +15, but you will be able to order them in whatever offset you want. Finishes are tentatively as follows, with the possibility of some special order limited editions if there's demand for it. Face finish: Hyper silver, hyper gold, gloss white, matte black, gunmetal/machined(Yurikaze spec) lip finish: polished or machined. Special editions (extra, and limited production) "Noir" (satin black face, satin black lip, orange lip stripe, orange "Noir" spoke graphic) "Blizzard" (White face, white lip, reflective silver lip stripe) If you don't remember what Chicanes look like, then here you go: In addition, there will also be a sister wheel to the Chicane, called the Slalom, which will be a mesh based off the Chicane forging, so if you are wondering, then yes, it is going to have the same deep concave face, and decent lip. Face finish: Hyper silver, hyper gold, gloss white, matte black, matte gunmetal, black/machined lip finish: polished, machined. Special Editions: (extra, and limited production) "SE" (matte silver face, matte silver lip, red lip stripe, red "Slalom SE" lip graphic.) "GTC" (black face, Gold chrome lip, black "Slalom GTC" lip graphic" Construction is going to be forged centers with forged lips, so these are going to be great wheels, not anything like a Sportmax or Rota cast wheel. In addition to the two 18" styles, there will also be two 15" styles with many of the same options. One will be called "Manta" and will be a 15" version of the slalom. Face finish: Silver, gold, black (standard), white, red, or black/machined (extra) Lip finish: polished (standard) or machined (extra) Center cap: Retro or modern Special editions: "RS" (black center, black lip, purple lip stripe, purple lip "Manta RS" graphic) The other will be "Aerodrome" and will be a 15" turbo style wheel. The Aerodrome is meant to appeal to euro guys. So, what do you guys think? There is eventually going to be a website that you can build your custom version and order it, like you can with Puma or Nike. |

That's awesome.
Definitely wouldn't mind rocking a set. What's the pricing going to be for something like 18x9 / 18x10? |

There is still some development going on before pricing can be finalized.
As for the 15's, so far there is going to be 15x7 and 15x8. The line can expand if there is the demand for it however. As for availability, You will be able to order them exactly how you want once the site goes up, and they will be shipped directly to you, from the factory. |

Whatever the price is on these, I will sell somebody a set of fully polished Equips for as close to that price as possible.
Awesome news Yuri.

Dang man, that's sick. Finally a production version. I'm very very interested in these. Heck they might make me abandon my lust for TE37's.
Very interested to see the mesh version as well.

17x8 or 17x9's Yuri
How the fuck am i gonna get full lock with a 18 with a bottomed out coil over?? lol Congrads man. Was this through the design school out there in Pasadena? What about that chrome anadized look? (Or can that be done special for a special customer?) The only reason I wanna know pricing and Date is so I can start saving and budgeting. (is this over on Ziptied yet? I'm sure they would love it.) |

BTW, I say if you're going to do 17's, then do them in 17x9 and 17x10. That way I can rock a 17x10 18x10 stagger which would pretty much be the hottest thing ever. Like ever. Period. End of time. Massive explosion. You get my point.

The launch is going to consist of just 15" and 18" to start with.
Once the project really gets rolling, there's the possibility of making the 15" styles in 16" and the 18" styles in 17" |
