Will Enkei do a custom wheel? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Does anybody know if Enkei will produce a custom wheel? I found one that I REALLY like, but the bolt pattern is wrong. Everything else is perfect...just not the bolt pattern. I hope they do, but I have a feeling they may not. Thanks.

Edit:

This is the wheel I found, but it only comes in bolt pattern 5x114.3

Try to contact them on their website or call them.

Since those are Cast wheels, they'd literally have to change the casting to accomodate this niche market.

Also, they only make it up to 19".

If they made it in the correct size/offset, I'd say you should redrill the lug holes (5x114 to 5x120 will only very slightly oval the holes) - but since they don't, find a new favorite wheel.

Yeah, I'm looking to downsize to a 19" wheel in the future and go with some 285/40 - 19 tires. Don't know if I'd want to redrill the holes though. Anybody done this before? Any negative side effects from this?

You definitely do not want to re-drill any lug holes on top of existing holes, especially on a cheap cast aluminum wheel.

If you are looking to downsize to 19s, contact me with your budget and I'll work to find you something that fits.

Enkei will not make custom wheels. Like someone else says they are cast wheels. At our factory in Jacksonville we run (enkei) a cast mold of the wheel and do about 50000 wheels on that one mold.
