Z-Gad Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Enkei made a set, but they are long out of production now. I have a set of 16's on my 77. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZROSSA Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 The 16 x 7 's on my car were made buy a co. called Cheviot. Its a New Zealand company thats still in the phone book. 0064 9 6343894(we are about 16 hours ahead of tenn). I doubt they are still in production. I will give them a call tommorow as mine are multi piece and I would like to take them out to 16 x 9's. I will check and see if they still do them. There is another company call ROH that does a multi piece mesh. Then there is always Simmons. $$$$$$$ Cheers Douglas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tom sixbey Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 i found a custom wheel manufacturer who makes them in 3 piece - USACOMP. they'll probably be pretty pricey though, so i'm gonna check out what youve got there, scott...

BARACU Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 I recently bought the 3 piece modular CXN wheels from USACOMP. Quality and workmanship is excellent. Price is around $2,000. If you call, ask for Alan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8ZRACER260Z Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 I have a set of 15X7" Used Enkie rims for sale. You can view them on my alblum page. They are in decent shape and I would take $300.00 for all four with two new 215/60R15 on one set. send me an email if you are interested. I am switching to a vette rim pattern.

zero Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 I dont know if these are quite what your looking for. but they are 3 piece so you could paint the wheels black if necessary. I just found em on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=43955&item=2429047933 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tom sixbey Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 those are real close, zero. - however it looks like i'm gonna have to custom order some in a 3-piece with a custom offset in order to get the size i need. Zr8ed had some really nice ones, but in a 16" diameter, and i'm afraid that i wont be able to find any decent tire selection for them, so 17" here i come...
