18" Steel Wheels??
Looking to see if anyone know where to see about 18" steel wheels? Got a few ideas rolling around in my head so looking for info. I know Stockton is out of business. Found guys that will widen wheels but can't seem to find anyone that makes a steel wheel? I guess I could get a set of aluminum made that way but I don't think the price would be in my budget.

18" wheels are going to be extremely heavy. Is this for a Camaro or some other type of car?

Dodge truck spares are 20" and 5 on 5 1/2" bolt pattern
Charger, Magnum, 300 spares are 18" and 5 4 1/2" pattern
Both can be rehooped for just about any width and offset.
Wheel vintiques does a billet aluminum steelie looking wheel, they take early Ford hubcabs though. WV also does a billet ralley wheel if this is for your camaro.

FYI - those are 115mm, 4-1/2" is 114.3mm, the difference is enough to be an issue for wheel studs, be careful. I thin the OP has a Camaro, so non-issue anyway. Originally Posted by dontlifttoshift
