Default Wheel question

Does anyone make Y2K wheels for the rear 1" wider than stock. I've seen one company make them, but the price was too high to be practical.

The majority I have seen have been chrome and I really liked my polished look! So I went with CHROME ZO6s wheels with a rear measuring 18x12! Im a nut case!

Try the following vendors: Corvette Garage, Xtreme Motorsports, or Corvettes of Houston. I thought I saw some information a while back on the Z06 size five spokes being available.
