Anyone have wheels that come in the following size?

Front 18x9.5", 54mm offset
Rear 19x10.5", 58mm offset
5x120 bolt pattern

I see many wheel sets offered here where the front is 9.5" and the rear is 11", for instance, or the front isn't offered in 0.5" width increments. You can change diameter by 1" and stay in Stock class in autocross, but changing the width is a no-no, really limits the options.

(This is a roundabout attempt to get RE-71R's in 265/35-18 F and 285/35-19 R.)

Check out TSW Nurburgring or Interlagos. The rear offset will be 65 though. Added bonus is they are cost effective and light. Forgestar are also a good option. The price is pretty good considering they are built to your specs and are also light.

I have (2) Front 18x9.5", 53mm offset in excellent shape. I'd take $250 for both plus shipping. These are nice!!
Also (1) Rear 19x11", 65mm offset, but it sounds like that is not for you.

Rims only - no tires!

Not bad, but do matching 19x10.5's exist?

Remember, offset can vary by 1/4 inch or 6mm so it doesn't have to be exactly the same as OEM. TSW's are probably best option if you're trying to save some $. If not, go Forgestar and they will build you exactly what you want for about double the cost.

Also, the autocross thread might find you better feedback since you are asking specifically about wheels for Stock/Street class autocross.

So the problem with TSW's is that to stay legal in Stock class you have to be +/-7mm according to this year's rules. That's front offset 47mm-61mm. This is what TSW makes in 5x120.65 with those offsets:

Note that the Interlagos and Nurburgring are not offered in that offet. Note that nothing is made in the 5x120 bolt pattern in this offset range (at all):

The rears, by contrast, can legally be 51mm-65mm offset. Here, they make the Interlagos and the Nurburgring:

Irritatingly, they make the damn wheel, they just don't drill it with the right bolt pattern, they drill it with 5x112:

If anyone here knows someone at TSW, tell them to take that wheel and drill it with 5x120.65! They might cannibalize their Cray line but they'd sell a lot more wheels at $275 (Nurburgring) than they do at $400 (Spider).

Basically, my search for legal wheels that fit RE-71R's has shown that Cray Spider, Brickyard, and Hawk do, in fact, work.

But, I ultimately said "too rich for my blood" and went with RS3V2's in 255/40R17 and 285/35R18. I'm not going to be competitive this year, so I just decent rubber. (Mine is 8+ years old.)

I'm in the same boat. I was hoping to source interlagos in 18x10.5 but require 350z offsets to fit my wide rear fenders. I called everyone including Tsw themselves to see if they could simply drill the 350z wheel with the corvette bolt pattern. No dice. This is the downside of cheaper wheels. You get what they offer, nothing more.

If it's just for autocross, you can run an OEM C5 Rear up front. Then run 18x10.5 (OEM C5 Z06 is good option) in rear which will be lighter than 19's. RE71R 285/30/18's are coming too... they are also shorter (smaller diameter than 19") so they will give slightly more acceleration.

Now these are the posts I like to see... I've made this same basic comment several times myself.
