Default TorqueThrust II's - where are they?

I went on the American Racing Equipment site to find the size TT II's that I need for the rear of the 502/79- and they're gone! Didn't A.R.E. make TT II's up to 20"?
I've got the offset control arms, and wanted to get a pair of the 18x9.5 or 10's so I could put bigger rear tires on, plus clear the rear spring. DAMN!
Anyone know where you can buy 18-20" TT II's?
Thanks..........

American Racing website hasn't been updated in a while. Pretty weak if oyu ask me... My rims (AR CL205, grey spoke TT2's) are not on AR's website at all, in any size.

Anyway, here is a link to the place I bought mine. They have 18-20" TT2's.

On second thought, I guess links to non-supporting vendors is a no-no... The place is called "wheelsforless". I'm sure you can find it.

I think GroovyJay has 20" TTII's on his vette. Maybe he'll chime in.

I ordered my grey spoked TTII's from Drivers Edge in Kingston, give them a call.

That's right. I bought mine from Hot Rods USA, very nice customer service and they came up with the best deal when I was looking.
