      Can you get an 18x11 in the V48? Tell the price jump isn't astronomical, one of the great things about VWW is te affordable price.

      No and No.

      I called VWW and was told no 18s on anything wider than 9 inches - yet.

      And, no 18s on the v48s - yet. Only available on the two TT style rims.

      Pricing was very reasonable, though.

      The 48 would look SO good in a 18x11!

      The widest industry standard for 18" hoops is 9.5"
      To go bigger they have to cut two hoops and weld them together.
      I am sure you could speak to Eli get two hoops and get it widened to your spec(weldcraft). Then send it back to them and make your 18 x 11 V45-40.

      As a note, team III now make an 18" minilite wheel.

      Any chance of getting the V50 in 18's? I need 18x11's for the rear of my falcon. Plan to run 17's up front. It would be worth it to me to go custom barrel if the v50s could be made in an 18" center.

      However long you think your project will take, double it and you might be halfway right.
