best bet would be to go with a custom billet wheel. Tons of companies make them, and to your specifications....just make sure you get your backspacing correct so it doesnt stick out a mile. Here is a pic of my Boyd Coddington Hotrods....the rear lip is about 3.5" and the front is about 2.5"

and third!
also, I agree on the custom billets. Do a little searching online, they can be had much cheaper than you think. I actually bought mine brand-new for less than a set of Toque Thrusts, and now I have a look unlike EVERYONE else...

where do you get custom billet wheels? people suggested that but i figured it would cost a fortune.

well they arent cheap...but any brand is pretty much competitive in price. Boyd Coddington, Boze, Foose, Intro are just a few companies, and price varies on size and width....but like said above, dont base (or buy) straight from the maker as they usually have higher prices. Check out sportruck.com....many of us on TGO have gone through them to get wheels
....thanks for the comments

i thought by custom you meant making your own design.

not that custom. you don't even want to go there unless you plan on having as much/more in the wheels as you bought the car for. - custom meaning one of their designs, built to your specs - meaning back space/width/height/lug pattern.
