Default 18x10-12" Mesh style wheels?

I just bought a 68 Camaro with a TTLS, ect and want to find a decent set of pro touring style wheels & tires for it for street use (That aren't $800 each!).

What are some sites, manufacturers, ect that you guys like to use?

I like the dished look and want a 10-12" rear wheel with a 4-5" backspace.

Prefer a titanium or black center and a polished rim.

Thanks for the help!

Im not 100% but anything thats 12in wide is probably gonna cost being that most of the affordable manufacturers don't produce them that wide from my own research. I have been searching high and low and if its not a Vette wheel then its exactly,800$ or higher. The usual suspects Weld,Billet Specialties, CCW, OZ etc. If you find any post back up because Im sure many others would like to find some. I just said screw it and Im putting back for a set I haven't seen yet on here*

Billet Specialties Street Lites should be less than $400 a piece.

I need a "dished" wheel for the car. I just can't do the "flat" wheels.

I found these for my car that look like a forged wheel and don't cost $800 a wheel but they only come 9.5". I don't think you'll find anything that's 12" unless it's a custom order. These are made by Rennen and it's the cast series.

That looks good!
I have a set of Sanders beadlocks coming for my drag radials and found these for some cheap street wheels.

Look through XXR wheels. They have somewhat the style, 10.5 wide and are an affordable wheel. Just finding one to fit may be the challenge!

I have some CCW Classics that are 18x9 and 18x11 I'll sell you!? Shoot me a text at 405-248-1992. I just joined here to sell them actually, hence why I'm new, but am more than willing to prove that I have them and am not some scammer

Well after spacing off an important detail, I cannot run that style of wheel due to the 5/8" studs in the rear.

I like my Fikse mesh style wheels. You can get them in 18x12 I believe.
