RPM R505-like wheels in 10/11" widths?
My quest for the perfect wheels for my CETA had originally had me wanting a set of SP500s. However, after seeing a black TA with 19" RPM R505 wheels on it, I was in love. The problem is, they don't come any wider than 9". I'm shooting for 18x9.5/10 up front and 18x11 in back, in order to run a 315 tire in the rear. I've tried contacting RPM several times to see if they'd be willing to make a one-off set, but have never responded.
Here's the wheels in question:
Anyone know of similar-styled wheels in the widths I'm shooting for? This is further complicated by the fact that I want to do the CTS-V caliper swap, but I figure there are other ways around that (wheel spacers, etc).
Other wheels I've considered, but have dismissed, include:
HP Evo - No longer in production, to my understanding, and don't like the rivets
AZA Z2 - No wider than 8.5", still don't like the rivets
CCWheel SP20a - Similar styling, but 'spensive

Widening was one thing I considered, but I was told that it's either not recommended or just not safe to widen all 4 wheels on a vehicle.

I am looking for the same style wheel for my GN, but there isn't much out there that have wide widths. I have come to the conclusion that I have to step up with some coin to get what i want. I am curently looking at:
True Forged Chicane, CCW LM20, and the ID Wheels 313.
They all run from about 2500-3300.

I see that they offer the RPM 505 in a 19x9.5, bolt pattern 5x120.7 38mm offset for the Rear. Will those fit up front also? if i just got all 4 the same size with a 275/30/19 tire or is the biggest i can fit on the front a 19x8.5? im not a fan of the staggered look.
