Icon3 Custom made wheels

Does anyone know of any place that can custom make a 19X7.5 wheel for my civic?
My next mod will be the 5-lug conversion with disc brakes, so I know I will need them made as 5 lugs.

I looked and they do not offer any thing along the lines of what I am doing. The only other place I have found said they will charge me about $5,000 a wheel to be made, but I am wanting to find something a little less expensive, with the design I want to follow with the theme of my car.

You never mentioned what you're doing... so it's not like anyone has much to work with.


PS. If your Civic is a 2000 model, those wheels will be far too big for a safe tire size.

so you want a totally custom wheel like you want to design your own face style, etc?

i have worked w/ a shop that designed a couple one off wheels here in socal. one of their last known customers designed his own styled wheels for his Lambo and the shop owner told me it was around $8k for all 4 wheels.

if you want a wheel that not a lot of people have then i can name a few spots off hand.

For one, my civic is a show car that will not be driven everyday. The wheels are going to be on the car for shows only. For driving the car, I have a set of 18" Falken Hanabis. The car's suspension is a set of FBSS Air Cylinders too.

Please do tell me which ones. The shop that told me $5,000 a wheel is Silver Star Customs in Horn Lake, MS
