Does anyone know if these wheels are made with 911 offset?
Looking for 17x7 23.3 and 17x9 15. And 5x 130 bolt pattern. I searched many brands with no luck. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Attached image(s) |

seems like the backspace is much more than the typical 4.5" thus could this not be neutralized with the right thickness spacer? and long studs?

I have seen these on 911 wide bodies. I thought a Japanese manufacturer maybe.

This is what I found.. these are 5 spoke. But I'm looking for 6 spokes.

Is there any reason you can't call them and ask?

When you say "these wheels", what do you mean? Are you just looking for a 6-spoke wheel that looks kinda like that?
Ray's will probably make you a set of TE-37s if you ask nice and wait, for example. The wheel you posted looks like the Miro 398. It's only available in 18", 5x100 and 5x114.3. |

Rota makes a knock-off of that wheel. You can order custom bolt patterns from them. The rub, is you have to order 5 sets (so maybe a group buy opportunity).

This looks to be the wheel you’re asking about. It looks like you’re on your own as far as measuring if they’ll fit. You might get away with drilling rotors to fit.Varrstoen Wheels

On the off chance someone knew a source. I will make few calls. |
