Hello friends:

Hey, I'm looking for a fairly simple 5-spoke wheel preferably with a machined lip (and no rivets). Does anyone know of a wheel that looks similar to the Trafficstar DTS or even the Mille Miglia AI that would fit our size and offset?

Here is the link for the Mille Miglia wheel:

And this is the trafficstar:

Thanks, guys.

I have seen the Traffic Star on a TL, so it has to fit!

Yeah, it does fit, but there are two problems: 1. It takes extensive work to make them fit (center must be re-bored to fit the TL/CL; and, 2. Too expensive.

Any more ideas?

GOT PSI?

1. Bored to make them fit? I haven't heard that one. On the TL site, "closer and Mr.Hyde" both run a set of 19X8, with +47 offset and they mentioned nothing about "boring" them out. Maybe send them a PM and see?

2. Yes, they are an expensive wheel, as they are made in japan, true 3 pc too.

I like the Racing Hart M5s!

Got PSI . . .

Yeah, I might not be using the correct terminology. I e-mailed the website that I referenced above and they responded that in order for that wheel to fit my car (which is actually a '99TL) extensive work would need to be done--he made it sound like the center of the wheel was too deep to fit and it would have to be modified. In any event, it's not the issue at hand. The quesion is:

Does anyone know a LIKE wheel that fits and isn't so expensive? Perhaps just a forged one-peice?

Thanks
