I am in the same boat. I am looking in about the same price range but there's not alot in the range. I love the weld rts but I am sure they will be out of my price range also.

Check out Justin@driversinc's website at the bottom of his post. He has some good wheels for about $2100. I just wrecked my car today so I need to figure that out first.

The only thing I don't like is the 4-6 week wait.

Nah lol got ran over by an 18 wheeler, I was in the Trans Am though. I like how I can hit 170 mph in the car but I wreck it going 3mph.

Just from my own personal experience, give paradise road rod and custom a call. I'm going to order my budniks through them in a few weeks, super sweet price and there probably the nicest guys to deal with

Take a look at CCW.

170 mph....really, in that car?? If so, I sure hope you weren't doing it on the street!

Idk, probably like 160, the speedometer stops at 155 and it went past that a ways, it was a one time thing. I don't think my speedometer is right with the smaller non WS6 wheels either. Definitely the highlight of my life.

I like the CCW 505a's but would there be any problem running a 2 inch spacer? I like the Rushforth Livewires too, kind of a toss up.

What's the widest rear tire I can fit on a 18' with reasonable mods? Don't mind a little cutting but I am not going to tub the car. TT2's are cool but I wanted something different.

Why's that? I heard the lead time was long, 10 weeks or so, but hadn't heard anything else.

That's their standard answer usually far longer than that. I know someone that's been waiting 6 mos.
