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.
