I'll let you peeps in on any info I can get from them.
Just heard from one of them
I can do the turned aluminum rims but the photo etched centers are the problem. Business has been very slow and I just don't have the capital to run any new photo etched panels at this time.
If you think these will be a high volume item we can look into running a panel with just your items on it. You will be looking at around $2,000 dollars for a run of ten panels plus $500 to $750 for artwork time. I know it's alot of money but it will get you a lot of parts and a few different styles of spokes.
Let me know if you are still interested and we can work on some quotes.

This sounds cool but expensive. by the way the other compamy is not making aluminum rims sorry.
