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

I doubt they'll make you some. You can have them widened for around $150 a wheel and not have any issues. It has been done before. If you search you will find the information and pictures.

beware I have heard horrible things about the quality and finish of the RPMs...

I have 19" RPM 505s on my camaro and I dont have one issue with them. They have been on my car for almost 2 years now.

Heard back from them today; being a cast wheel, no chance of getting a custom one made.

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.

^^^^ why is it safe to widen the back two, which lots of people have done, and not the front two????

^ Makes no sense to me either. I'd run their size as they sell them up front and have the rear two widened.

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.
