Anyone know of a company that can build custom forged 3 piece wheels in 24x15 size that don't require half a years salary? The truck is at the chassis shop now waiting for the rear end to be narrowed to fit Pirelli 385/35R24 tires on the rear and my original wheel manufacturer ended up backing out of their commitment to build wheels. I checked with ADV but they want my first born in exchange for making custom wheels and although he gets on my nerves at times I don't think I can let him go. :eek: My other thought is to buy a set of American Racing El Rey wheels and have them widened. Any input is appreciated as I don't think the truck will look very cool with stock rear wheels sitting inboard 5".
 
Why not send the OEM wheels off and have the widened??:dontknow: That would be trick!!:rock:
 
Because he'd have to add a lip over 5" wide or have the hub widened 5". Either way isn't usually done. Most cases I've done is only added to barrel of wheel. He will need a huge reverse offset wheel custom made really like a pro stock or full on race style wheel.

They have a few others that look good. I also saw they can/will go up 15" wide. Didn't see pricing but, may be worth a shot. :dontknow:
 
I believe Raceline wheels made the 24x15's for Lethal Hemi's truck. I'm not sure what you consider expensive, but you gotta pay for custom stuff.
 
I believe $1k per wheel is what I was quoted for when I tub my truck out.
 
Why not go with a 405/25r24?

It will look so much better and raceline and intro wheels or boyds can make 24x15 which I believe are the only ones

Hes mine with a 24x15

I would love to see a 24" rear rim that complimented the looks of our stock rims. I would buy for sure!
 
Those wheels are insane!!!

They remind me of the first time I saw a mid 60's Cobra. Wheels disproportionately wide for the vehicle! Looks great though.

Yes I'd also love to see some widened stock wheels.

They can only add to the inboard side of the wheel so offset would be crazy.

I would say any wheel company is going cost at least $6k is that reasonable to you.
6K would be reasonable to me for forged 3 piece in a modified design so they looked more like stock wheels. Pricing I am getting now is $9800 for wheels plus 5K design fee.

This might be an option. They have a split 5 spoke that looks sorta like stock wheels. I will have to see what their prices are.

Lethal Hemi, Looks great. I looked at the 405s but thought with a heavier truck I wanted more side wall. This may still be used for some light towing so the last thing I want is an expensive wheel getting bent.
 
Here is the wheel from ADV that I would like to get only I would like it with wider spokes to match the factory wheel better. This is a three piece deep concave that has the extended fingers on the spokes.



 
Hey those wheels look good,, Id be interested in a set for my application they would need to be 19' for me and would have to get all the specs, see what kinda deal they can get on two sets,
