Phone dials 18 inch!, Just passing word for interest. Options

[SUNAB914]

Dear Porsche Enthusiast,



We've recently completed design on an updated version of the classic Porsche Phone Dial wheel: an 18 inch version of this wheel in a modern, modular, 3-piece incarnation, for more fitment and tire options in the updated look (picture attached).

Manufacture of this wheel will give Porsche and VW enthusiasts the opportunity to order this modern version. We have a highly reputable North American wheel manufacturer on board, ready to start tooling and manufacture of the wheels. Our next step, prior to manufacture, is SAE wheel testing to ensure wheel strength. Preliminary software simulations surpass the strength requirements, but we need to perform standard testing on actual wheels for DOT (U.S. Department of Transportation) documentation.

We are using Kickstarter (link, below) to finance the SAE wheel testing. Kickstarter allows financial contributions to a project and gives the contributor a memento (reward) of choice in return. In our case, besides our many standard rewards, we also include the opportunity to pre-order a set of 18" Phone Dial wheels!




Please forward the information about our project to as many fellow car enthusiasts as possible, and make a contribution if you can. We would like to get this wheel design to the manufacturing stage, so that it becomes available on a permanent basis from our manufacturer!
