We are! And we will be heavily stocked on all finishes and sizes for anyone that is interested. They are already online and available for pre-order, HERE.
On your site it says:
"The Velgen wheel requires a metal hubcentric ring for installation. This ring is included with each wheel."

I'm not a big custom wheel guy so maybe this is a dumb question, but if you are creating an all new wheel why wouldn't it be sized to fit without a spacer?

A hub-centric ring is not a spacer. Very rarely do aftermarket wheels match the hub bore to a specific model of vehicle. Like most aftermarket wheels, these are not made specifically for the Mustang so the hub-bore is larger than needed. Using a hub-centric ring allows the hub bore of the wheel to sit nicely on the hub bore of the vehicle while the lug nuts are properly torque to spec. This helps in keeping the wheel perfectly centered, thus preventing and vibration or premature tire wear.

Thanks for the info Dave!

I think that would look pretty good. Magnetic Grey can go with plenty of color combinations.

I would be VERY interested to see this color combination as I've never seen a magnetic car with blue wheels.

That's a "real nice custom look...". What size tires are you running in the pic with the White/Silver combo?
