QUOTE(rick 918-S @ Oct 22 2006, 07:54 AM)  Anyone have a source? I wonder who could cut 18" Fuch wheels from a solid billet? You can have wheels made from 16' centers but they kind of look like the centers are too small. Or maybe just have custom centers with longer paddles made..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) these in the picture are 17's, but no reason 18's couldn't be made the same way. They look like Coddingtons, but there are other companies that make rims the same way....who makes the rims for Foose??...figure about $500 - 700 a pop..I have custom 20's on my truck, 2 piece design with the center billet welded to the outer half.  |

Maybe optional (=18") boxster rims are a posibility for you guys?
For those cars, 18"'s were made a tad smaller in width. This way I searched long for 7,5 and 9J x 18 Sport-classic II's (BBS) and found a set :-) They have 225/35 tires and are actually a tad lower than my 17" rims (with 205/50/17) before. |
