[Fot] Racing Wheels

[Alfetta95]

Call VTO

Just bought a set for my Alfa. I bought the blanks and had them drill it for the studs and I selected the offset that I wanted

The owner, Warren, is very good to deal with, but I should say they are swamped with business, and it took quite a bit of persistence to get an order going - phone calls, as emails tended to go un-responded to for at least a week or two.  I would say lead time, including correspondence, pricing and machining is at best 5-6 weeks, and that assumes they have the right wheel “blank” in stock that they can drill for your bolt pattern and machine the backspace as needed.  This is not a criticism of the company - it’s like everything else right now - they had limited business for nine months, now everything is going gangbusters, supplies are difficult and they can’t hire enough qualified people - this is what he told me.

What sort of offset are you looking for?  They will make either side of zero offset from -24 to +08mm for the 8 spoke classic rally.  The offsets can be custom within a range, and varies by their wheel type.  Might be worth reaching out to the sales team; they were very helpful when I had them duplicate the specs on my 70’s era 5 spokes.
