First off I'm bumping Redbones post. We need an 18 inch rear we can put a decent sport radial on and a match to the 85 five spoke has been a fantasy of mine for some time. I never thought our rear wheels ever complemented the fronts. We already have "maxdaddys" Uffoos wobbler and sportmax that all make a 17 and 18 wheel machined like the late model fronts. They are god awful expensive! I think one off custom bolt on wheels for a Max should be $1,200 a rear and $800 a front. Try not to curb your "one offs" guys. If multiple runs are gonna be made like a rear matching our 85 fronts, it should blow the rest of these other wheel guys out of the water. Those fugly rears out of Michigan were $600 a pop and offset and nasty looking. I would expect a Muscle wheel to be complete and top notch quality. I would hope /dream /wish for $800+ a rear and $500 a front. Now that's on a run of thirty/ forty or more of the same thing. Obviously a short run of five to ten should cost more (1,000 a rear 750 a front). The price should reflect the mans effort. Don't go thinking you'll get a set of limited production Vmax specific wheels for a grand. That's just not worth a guys effort....unless, some one has the (dare I say it) Chinese connection. They're building model airplanes over their that compete with the finest custom handbuilt models available here. Everyone should price out some "Taylormade" wheels from the UK and their prices. Yeah, gimme a 18x5.5-6.5 rear that matches front so I can get some decent radial rubber. I can already find radials for my stock fronts. One man, one vote
