That is interesting. $675 each, No more yellowing white walls. The reason why I never buy Wide Whites

TWO MODELS AVAILABLE.
We have produced a revolutionary, patent pending 20” rim that replicates a 15” steel wheel with a 2 ½” section of whitewall tire attached. This unique design allows for the installation of today’s low-profile tires to create the nostalgic, old-school wide whitewall look, but have the performance of today’s modern sports cars. Our wheels are also compatible with the car’s original hubcaps to complete the original look.
All wheels are made from heat-treated 6061 T-6 Billet aluminum that is CNC milled to the finish details, including the raised logo on the pseudo-whitewall.
The Inner Barrel is 6061 spun-forged aluminum with a rolled lip—widths available from 8” to 12” in 1/2”
increments, for almost every application
The Outer Wheel is finished in a gray primer to be finished later to match each application
The Whitewall section is finished in a durable Alsa™ soft-touch paint—it has the durability of a powder coat,
but with a soft-feel of a rubber-like texture
The WheelWe have created a solution that allows us to place the valve stem in the factory position of a 15” wheel. A special channel is milled through the center of the billet outer rim–intersecting the valve stem at the original position of a 15” steel wheel valve stem, making the valve stem functional.

I sure wouldn't want to 'curb' one of those fancy rims....

Chassis concept chassis. Backspace on wheels is standard C4 since that's what chassis uses for suspension. There's a build thread on here about car. I sold it at Barrett Jackson Vegas 2015 so thread is a little older than that.

I don't know what these wheels are called, I have my original wheels and tires too... but I love the look of them. They have a late 60's date inside the rim and it took me a year to find new center caps for them.. The originals were metal caps that were pitted up, but I found plastic replacements in the 90's that made them look cool again.
