No worries about that. Why? Because they are custom machined to fit your application perfectly. That's what you get with custom forged wheels, perfect fitment, no rubbing, no fender rolling, no spacers or anything else. So what offsets you need, we make them! Plain and simple!

So may I ask, do you people figure it all out and make them for the application or do you want the specs supplied by the vehicle owner or combination of both ??

Reason I ask is I've already made contact with one custom wheel maker and they wanted to do everything on the specs side which is fair enough as they should know more or best, but they were also relunctant to give out any of those specs for the purposes of being able to check if it fits the way I want them to fit, ie. no sticking out or too close to gaurd edges, no stretched tyre fitments or having to camber the wheels etc. etc. which is what I'm seeing on most of these cars fitted with custom made wheels, how would I possibly know what the end result would be for me in that circumstance bit late after taking delivery and paying all that money if you ended up with something your not happy with, I certainly wouldn't want to join the long lists I see everywhere of unhappy customers of custom wheels

If they don't want to provide specs, I would recommend not buying from them

I understand that majority of companies that make forged wheels are custom machined to fit any cars applications/specs (I've had ADV1 and DPE on my prior cars). What Im more so leading to, is what offset can D2 "custom make" to get the most concave or dish to fit the high offsets of our cars?? I can go to ADV1, DPE, HRE etc and get wheels made to fit my offets of +45 and +55, but Im trying to find a wheels design/company to actually come up with a wheel with a good amount of concave that will fit our cars. Im after a aggressive set up that can fit my car.

Sent you a PM with the details, but for the public knowledge, what size of the wheel in diameter are we talking about here? Then we can get you more info in regards to concavity and fitment.

The high offset Vossen CV3's are in stock now. Just recieved last week. We have also done the Rohana's on that application as well. A nice wheel that can be had for around $1600 or less. Wheels weights are the same as all the cast wheels out there. See our wheel weight thread for more info on that.

Be glad to help in your search.

You cut out a part on that quote. The Vossens sell for considerably more. The Rohana Wheels are in the price range I mentioned above. Also, the Vossens only have 20" fitment. The 19" fitment of the CV3 are due in a couple weeks but not sure if they are offering a high offset right off the bat on the new 19" fitment.

Here is a link to the 19" Rohana RC5 Spec Sheet. They offer a +45 front and +50 rear.

Shoot me a PM if you want more details on pricing. We are running some specials on those right now.
