Default Want 18x9.5 and 18x11 Chrome, what are my options?

After a lot of looking around there are a lot of nice wheels that are simply not made in these sizes...

I don't know where else to look so I thought i'd get some input here.

Also I don't want most of the common ones (no black wheels, Z06, TT2, ZR1)

So what's out there?

My two favorites are currently:

HPR5 (18x9, not quite big enough)
http://www.hpdesignwheels.com/wheels/hpr5-chrome.html

SP500 (18x10 and 18x11, good sizes)
http://www.ccwheel.com/files/wheelpr...l.php?id=sp500

Can they make custom sizes that aren't listed?

Still like the HPR5's best though...not sure where to buy them or whether they make custom sizes.

After more searching I have found these:

TSW Nogaro:

Privat Profil:
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...=Car%2FMinivan

Borbet Type FS:
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Displ...t+Silver+Paint

Not sure on sizing I just thought those looked good too...

Also can anyone put the HPR5's on a Black TA or have a pic of them on any F-Body?

EDIT I just realized that I don't think I can get Nitto Drag Radials in 315x18 can I? That was the whole plan...

Will be. I know it will all be a tight fit but with some modification they should work. I CAN go with a 10" wide wheel if I have to but I shouldn't, there are plenty of people on this board lowered with 11" wheels.

So you can't get an HPR5 any wider than 9" huh...that's smaller than stock...guess those are out of the question. Thanks for clearing that up FH212.

Can you get the Privat Profil in this size in chrome? I can only find silver and black.

If not my last option is the CCW since they make the right sizes.
