I'm thinking of going a little crazy on the wheel and tire package on my explorer. I want to get a set of 19" wheels (not chrome) in some odd widths. I am thinking of doing 315's or 345's in the rear and 255's up front. Is there anyone out there that can custom make me a set of wheels? and also who would be able to tell me what my backspacing would be.

Are aware of how much this will cost - $10,000 easy, you have to start with billets (blocks of metal) then machine from there, any machine shop I know of charges a ton for their programming time and machine time.
 






I know Foose will custom make ANY type of rim you desire........at a cost of course.
 






boyd coddington does wierd sizes and i think for a price will make you your own.....
 






For enough money you could probably get Jesse James to mill you out a set...
 






*cue the music*

mone mone mone mon-ay, MON-AY!
 






jesse james already has his own wheels available to the public... i think there are other cheaper ones that look exactly the same though.... you might want to check out weld racing... als o just call the mfgs directly... sometimes they stock hard to find or odd wheels jsut becuase, and they arent part of what people normally buy.....
 






Well I found that I can get HRE's but they are $1,600 for the rears and $1,400 for the fronts (thats a piece). I might still call colorado custom And see what they can do. Otherwise I might just have to go with 18's
