I am not sure what style of wheel you are lookin for exactly or what kind of price either............ But I carry Boze alloys where I work and I know they will custom make any backspacing based the specs. you want and your application.

i want exactly what snake said. 18x10 with a 7" back spacing. if i could find something for $200/wheel i would be thrilled but if i found something super cool i could go as high as $500/wheel. as far as style i seem to like chrome or polished 6spoke wheels of some kind.

U should check out Boze's website they have a wheel called a Stinger 6 available in 18x10 with whatever offset you want. I can get those for about $550 a piece. They would take about 2 to 3 weeks to get.

http://www.bozeforged.com/home.htm

http://www.billetspecialties.com/

These two sites have plenty of information on them - You would have to check around with different vendors to find the best price. It looks like an 18x10 might run somewhere around $500-$600

Take a gander at Intro wheels I know for a fact that they will custom make your wheels any way you want them.

I'm running 6" back space with 18x9.5 and the Nittos,
7" might put you really close to rubbing up front.


I would say 6.5 would be perfect.
the 305/45 up front would sit flush unless the 4x4 suspension off set is slightly differant.

Boyds will do custom backspacing.
Maybe Brian at Intro could help you out.
