      DriverzInc: 18" Vintage Wheel Works V40 and V45's!!!

      After talking to Vintage Wheel Works and years of waiting, we finally got the nod to start selling 18" V40 and V45's! As of today they have hoops for 18x7,18x8, and 18x9.5. 18x11's will be available in a little over a month. Feel free PM, call, or email for prices quotes.

      The spec for a 335 is 11.5-12.5, but realistically you shouldn't have a problem on an 11.0" wheel. A half an inch on a 13+ inch tire isn't the end of the world

      If the prices aren't outrageous, I might get a set.

      Not yet. We will not have pricing until they are ready to hit the market.

      Any chance they might make them in 18X12? 18x12 with a 6" back space I would be interested, otherwise I'll pass.

      Sorry bud, 18x11 is as wide as they are going to go.

      Any update in the possibility of the V48's in an 18x11?

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

      Sorry, but no.

      With the sale on the NewGen's, maybe go two piece billet? Or... wait indefinitely. :(

      Believe us, we'll be the first to post when they are available!

      Thanks Jon, wheels are a few months out (Probably my Christmas present to myself) so maybe they announce something or I will just have to go another route. I perfer the straight spoke deisng of the V48's over the Team III curved design, but that might end up my only real option. NewGens are killer but just out of my budgets reach. I can get 18x8 & 18x12 Team III LTIII package out the door in the neighborhood of $2k.

      Here is a couple shots of my 18" V40's. Sorry, my I-phone pictures are not really clear.

      Screw the 18" V48 waiting game. I got so tired of waiting, what, 2 years? I hooked up with John and got a deal done on some Lite's. YEAH!
