In Reply To	I can make Stock stlyle rims in 18" or 19" who's interested? posted by nightriderZ on January 30, 2008 at 01:17 PM
Message	A simple 5 spoke design, but in an 18x9f 18x12r size. The offset has to be perfect in order to miss the suspension components and the fender. Oh, and even at that 12 inch size, the wheel 22lbs or less. I myself wouldnt be too worried about making a stock looking wheel. I would make the wheel that the guys with money would want. A goodlooking steamroller that wasnt made of lead, 1 piece, easy to clean, not gaudy. With that bolt pattern, it would appeal to the Z32, Z33, Supra, and Mustang guys. But it would HAVE TO be cheaper than an HRE/IForged wheel. Otherwise, the consumer will go with the 3 piece HRE. If you can do it, there is a market Copied in Hell Ballistic, Ruler of Interstates, God of Roads Next US Tour is from Cleveland,OH to Reno ,NV (and all points north)- June 1-8,2008
