Exiled and I have been discussing steel wheels for the last few months. It hasn't been a huge priority for me since I haven't had a 100. That is changing this week.
I emailed all of the large steel wheel manufacturers.
Right now, the best quote I have is from http://www.trudesignwheel.net/beadlocks.html This is for their modular or D window standard wheel. Look under beadlocks for what they would look like but these are not going to be beadlocks unless you choose to order yours that way. They are $107.20 plus shipping for BARE wheels in a quantity of 13. Their powdercoating is an additional $25/wheel. I don't know what it would cost for chrome although it would be something that I'd probably try just to spite the chrome hating Cruiserheads. Actually, I'm looking at getting them done in silver. Anyway, the $107.20 price is very good if you have done some steel wheel shopping and these are a high quality American made wheel with substantial steel lips. These aren't some made in China about as thin as tinfoil wheels. I am highly doubtful that the price will go down anymore with more people ordering. But I know they would do more at this price at this time. Once they have the machines set up they can do a good run of similar wheels. I'm guesing if you called for a run of 5 it would be much more.
Post up if you are seriously interested. Exiled and I will be ordering ours within the next month. I guess maybe I'll say 2 weeks we will leave it open from today.

for putting it together. I'm always happy when someone does something like this.
