Some are ready togo some are in the pipeline.
6UL is Low pressure cast
6ULR is Low pressure cast + Flow Formed.

Man, those would look sweet on my 8. But I bet they are made for performance, therefore costly. Will have to check em out though.

http://949racing.com/6ULR-wheels.aspx these are excceedingly well made wheels for the price
The all new 6ULR will also be LP cast like the gen II 6UL but will feature a roll formed or spun forged outer rim or bell. This is a one piece design. The still molten aluminum wheel with it's center section already shaped is then spun. The outer rim is rolled between two mandrels and it's slowly drawn into shape. Imagine how a potter takes a wet clay pot, spinning it on the wheel, pinching the bowl in their fingers, pulling and drawing into its final shape. With roll forming, the outer rim is actually formed under extreme pressure so its a form of hot forging. This pressure further aligns the grain structure in the outer rim area which allows the absolute minimum possible material be used for a given strength target. The mandrels are CNC so an engineer can precisely vary the thickness to a few thousandths of an inch based on the results of FEA (Finite Element Analysis).
any pictures of the xtr yet? thats a great price for the 15x7 if it's really that light

not that I can find
since they said it's going to be a 10 spoke design, I suspect it will either be 10 evenly spaces spoke or 5 of their U-shapes
