What is the least expensive custom wheel?

I am not in the market for custom wheels at this time, but if I were what is out there? I think the Diamond Brand steel wheels are well liked, but I am not that into steel wheels. Who here has had wheels custom made?

i would try SportMaxx on Ebay, i picked up a set of 16x8 4x100 aluminum knockoff 2 piece wheels for something like $400 shipped new!

Plus, the model 002 look like Panasports

^That. Decent, cheap, look nice, and if you call them, they'll pretty much make whatever offset you need.

Sorry I was thinking custom offset, center bore, and bolt circle. but I do like sport max on miatas with flairs. I think they do these in custom offset (just dreaming). Thanks

Edit Sport Max come custom offset?

I love Fikse Wheels but over a grand each WOW.

Check out this BBS ad on youtube. No wonder they cost so much. Its the marketing! Check out how the new GTI wheel is made around 9:00 very cool. BBS

i dont think so... but dont hold me to that...

I thought they would.... i was on the verge of ordering a set through a local vendor, and they asked me what offset i wanted. I asked them what my choices are, and they maintained that they wanted a number from me.

Kodiak race wheels. Cheapest that I know of.

CCW, Diamond Racing Wheels, Kodiak.

I think there are some listed in the advertisers section at the back of your typical GRM mag. Check it out.

Fikse = out of business.

Keizer or Real would be at the low (but good) end of true 3-piece wheels.

gulp.... I'm either cheep or poor .... $500 / is a little out of my price range

I'd say it depends on what size, offset, and bolt circle you are looking for. There may be an off the shelf application if you know where to look.

Yeah, a lot of the Formula Hybrid teams (including us) were running Keizer.

We got a custom set of 13's for just over $800, but that was with a discount for SAE competition & a special they were running at the time.

Rota will make you any custom offset/bolt pattern if you get enough people for a group buy (10-15 I think?)

I think Fikse USA just recently went out of business.

FYI, Konig does some special order stuff. I almost did a set of 4x110 B-Bombs from them, but turnaround time is a long wait.

CCW does total custom stuff, but they are $$$.

i meant they look similar, not literally...

Well they are both round but beyond that...

Sportmax wheels are cheap and a lot of them are available with clearance for big brakes. You should also check out Rota, they are pretty cheap too!

I found these. They only offer custom offset but they are cheap. I wish I was into Mustangs.

For custom they really are quite good, and they hold up. I had a set of 17x19 17x21 made for my cobra with 3.4 stub whole darn cheap.
