@Mad Hungarian just curious if flow formed versions of the Zero G will also be offered under the Fast/Replika brand? I believe it will be a very popular option for customers who are indifferent between flow formed and real forged wheels.
No plans at this time as there are already options for this on the market, check out out T Sportline's lovely TS5s

Any update on when these will be released?
Hoping the prototype set will land end of September and we're looking at sometime in Q4 for volume arrivals.
 
Looks good. As they are forged they will probably not be inexpensive but curious if these will be competitively priced to other forged offerings like VS Forged.

First real pictures of the Zero G replicas from Fast's Facebook stories page.

Looks awesome! Makes me want it even more!

@Mad Hungarian I'm assuming the wheel shown is the Brushed Aluminium finish?

Yes!
Brushed with slightly dark-tinted clear, giving it just a hint of smoky goodness :)
The initial pics don't do it justice, we need to do a proper shoot but it literally arrived the morning of the first day at the show.
Here's a few more I took...

@Mad Hungarian any chance FASTCO will be selling the matching lug caps (extra) that goes with it? I tried searching Amazon, Ebay... no one sells them.

I think those would need to be modified for the Fast wheel which is a concave shape between those spokes. I think that is an improvement in the look of these wheels over the Tesla design. They are worth a good set of lug nuts so you don't need plastic caps, and you get the benefit of that design element.

Those might be an easy design for 3D printing however, and an enterprising designer could include the concave shape to match these wheels.

@DarkNRG is correct, because of the different contours of the lug pocket area the OE Tesla lug caps aren't compatible.
We think it looks nicer without them, however if there's enough demand we could always develop an optional cap set for them.

@Mad Hungarian you mentioned in Trev's video that you plan to install the EV04s on Magneto... any feedback on their performance so far?
Not yet, as the car is now going to the Quebec City EV show and we wanted it to stay in Lightning Run config with the EV01s on it, and also feature the EV04 on its Hero stand (we only have the 4 prototypes at the moment).
As soon as it comes back though you can bet I'll be shoeing them up :)

What are the offsets going to be? I know you plan to be conservative on that which is probably a good thing.
Actually since this one is purely about performance we're going just a hair more on the aggressive side.
Sizing/offsets/applications are as follows:

19x8.5 / +35 / Model 3
19x9.5 / +35 / Model 3, Model Y
20x9.0 / +35 / Model 3, Model Y
20x10.0 / +45 / Model 3 (rear only), Model Y

Deliveries on track to start first week of December.

I really wish these were available last year, would have totally rocked the 19x9.5 version of these for track instead of the FC04s.

It's never too late, FC04s have great resale value.
Just sayin' :)
