Just wondering who makes a cast wheel here in the USA. It's certainly a buying point if the price is even remotely close IMO. I'm specifically looking for 18" gray centered 5 spoke wheels like a Vintage Wheel Works V40's or Billet specialties Mag G etc for my 67' GTO but if there's an american made wheel we might as well list any you know of....

The VWW are made here in Southern California. On Billet Specialities website they have a job opportunity posted for CNC machine set-up person. Leads me to believe they make some measure of their products here. As for the cast centers? If anything was outsourced to overseas it would be those. I'm not saying they are.
You may want to pick up the phone if you want a definitive answer on the centers.

Talked to VWW via email and it sounds like they are cast overseas and their 2 piece wheels are finished here. I was surprised to hear that to be honest. I then called Billet Specialties. To my surprise, they cast and make 100% of their stuff right here in the good old US!
