What's changing? Any idea of a release date or info?

They have two 17x9's with 3.5 and 4.5 inch back spacing now.

If I had to guess I would guess maybe hub centric and for sure going to be made in USA most likely by Eagle Alloy. No idea on the release date. I was told a shortly about 6 months ago I finally gave up even tho they were what I wanted based on the originals.

Im running a set of ProComp 7005's right now, but am planning on moving to Beadlocks when my budget allows it. I'll go with a set of WalkerEvans or Spyder locks.
