Nice video, always fun to watch!

On a side note, I'm kind of disappointed ur company dropped the P40, P40S & P40SC line-up. The timeless design made them classic IMO, I agree the design has to evolve to keep up with the competitions, but u should have kept the P40 line-up.

They dropped the P40SC Lineup?! I was literally about to cancel my order for my wheels and order a set of P40SCs because I was willing to finally drop the coin on them and figured do it once and do it right!

I feel your disappointment, I was going to order another set in brushed red but now I'm searching the used market.

The M40 is the same as the P40 if I remember correctly.

Just to clarify, the P40SC is still available to purchase and the RS100M has been doing well as it's successor.

Awesome to hear the P40SC line-up is still available, I don't understand why my Canadian distributor said otherwise. (?)

I was told from a second distributor once again the P40SC series is no longer available. Confusing
