Light 19" rims

Has anyone heard of these guys? http://ryan.worthyinteractive.com/ad.htm
Apparently they are 19" forged rims that way about 15lbs and currently cost about 2k. There isn't much of a website yet, thought I would throw this out there.

I spoke to Simon, (the guy in charge of these wheels), (great customer service btw considering i called him at 11:00 at night) and it is indeed a great deal. The promotion is still on, but my only gripe is that the widest they go is 7.5 which is actually whats stopping me from going with the wheel, becuase im not willing to sacrafice that much of a contact patch. Besides that, the wheels pretty f$%@ing light, and if youre willing to go with a 7.5 width, Simon can make the proper fitment for an RX8, (and you can call him anytime because the calls are forwarded to his cell). You really cant beat $1999 with tires on a 19" one piece forged wheel.

If they are custom fit than wouldn't they be able to forge a wider wheel? I mean that is light but 7.5 ??? that's to slim for me...
