Does anyone know of any 5x130 aftermarket wheel sources? I see you can buy 17" tire and wheel packages for rice rockets for $699. It doesn't seem like it would be too difficult for one of these wheel manufacturers to make these with a Porsche pattern.

I'm looking for 17" rims too and haven't found anything interesting either. Lots of nice rims - even with correct offset - but wrong bolt pattern (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Somebody posted a flared 914 with Borbet wheels - so I plan to investigate those. They're not cup wheels like most of the 5/130's and their website shows some models have a suitable offset. Also got an interesting tip of a shop converting 16" Fuchs to 17". Unfortunately I will need to win the lottery to buy those. $220 per wheel is a bargain in comparison. And if I haven't found any before the end of year I'll see what I can find in Euroland when I go there for a visit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
