Default fyi.....

I called VWW this morning. They are working on a one-piece 17-inch design of their wheels and expect to have them ready for purchase later this year.

VWW seems like an awesome company. And their stuff is made right here in the good ole USofA.

You might also look at the ones offered by Billet Specialties and Genuine Boyds.
They have enough 5 spoke designs at different price points to make your head spin.

DriverzInc has a pretty awesome reputation from what I have gathered. I have also talked to Perry from PTS wheels. Newstalgia wheel is another one, between those someone should really be able to help with your quest.

Torq Thrust D's in 17" are basically the CL205, which is on our site here:

WheelPros does own American Racing, but the information above that they don't do custom offsets is not correct. They make their two piece wheels custom, as in their TT2's, CL205s, 200S, etc., all in house.

For a similar wheel, the VWW wheels are an excellent alternative. The centers are a bead blast, which is "old school" in appearance, but for easy cleaning, I suggest you order from us with a clear coat so the aluminum does not soak in any brake dust, dirt, or oil.
