I'm sure Mark was asking Chris Foley (because Chris has them in four lug on his car) The guy normally doesnt return your phone calls unless your ordering 10-12 wheels. He is a 2 man show that is swamped with work.
Andy stay focused on what you do.. this guy is in BUMFUCK Oklahoma and doesnt need a website to sell to dirt track guy's.
I love his wheels.. but buying them is a pain in the ass.

My wheels are Keizer 3 pc., also made in the heartland.
I have had no problems dealing with them.

Do you know how much yours weigh?
And How much did they cost?
Thanks,

Thanks for the link
What’s even scarier is that I have several of his wheels and the sticker on them spells the brand as "Duralight" so I've tried looking every where for info to no avail, including calling OK information and getting nowhere.

Lets put it this way: I spoke with his wife and found out she know's several of my wifes relatives in Ada,OK. It still didnt get me a return call...LOL
Please let me know what you find out. Things may have slowed for him now. His wheels are the lightest I have EVER seen. I was first introduced to his wheels back in 1994.

Well I talked to him and they have changed ownership several times. They are not making any wheels for Porsche or were even aware that in the past Duralite made such a wheel.
I called Wes at Keizer they only make 15” not 16” at this time. “Maybe next year if he see enough demand”

Call this Keizer guy. I swear the centers are IDENTICAL to the Duralites we ran on a GT3 914 back in 94-5-6.
Mark,
Does your Duralite sticker have a phone number ?? I wouldnt be surprised if they had NO idea that there wheels fit a Porsche. In other words... they where told the 5x130 bolt pattern and cut it.
My stickers have a phone number.
