Maybe one of you tire & wheel vendors can answer my question. What is the widest rim I can get in a 17" or 18" diameter Torq-Thrust II wheel? Can they build me a 17x13 or 18x13? I need the wheels for another project I'm working on and would appreciate any input. Thanks.

You also might want to try Halibrand Engineering. They make a 5 spoke wheel that's just like the Torque-Thrust, and have various diameter and width options.

Halibrand is no longer in business,unfortunately. They filed bankruptcy awhile back and are now history after the Sheriff's Sale.
Check with http://www.boydcoddington.com. They have their Smoothie and Smoothie-2 that are very similar to the TT-II. I know they don't have those sizes listed as standard but they will make anything.
Here is a pic of their Smoothie on a C5
Try PS engineering (310)534-4477 no website who remanufactures some of the best reproduction racing rims like the Trans Am 5 spoke that ran on the 1960 racers like the Sunoco Camaros, Vettes. Also Jongbloed (952)445-8276 or http://www.jongbloedwheels.com can create you anything you want they often duplicate Lola, McLaren rims etc.. they both advertise in the Magazine- Victory Lane. This will give you something with History and that is a little more unique to make your project extra special. Halibrands, Torq-thrusts, etc. are getting to common on too many cars lately even though they still give a nice look. :cheers:
