Starts at $1850 for a set of 4 with bare minimum options. I added knurled beading for +$75 and a 5th wheel for $400. So, my total is $2325 (shipping included). there's a long lead time since they're one-off custom makes, but if the wheels turn out anything like what has been posted in this thread, this is the way to go.
Great alternative to Titan7 and Apex wheels.
And Volks.... well, you're paying for brand name at that point. Too rich for me.

Curious to see how you like them. I'm all for buy Volks or other expensive wheels, but when you're tracking your car wheels can be considered a consumable. Not to mention Volk stopped making most of the older wheels we all have, so getting replacements is impossible/expensive.
These seem like a decent alternative for tracking on.
I have a set of bspk wheels on my alfa and work miesters on my s2k. Honestly the quality of both wheels are excellent with the bsk’s being lighter and those are 20’s vs my 18’s on the s2k. I am halfway considering selling the meisters for a set of bsk’s that look like those ce28’s.
The weight of the bspk wheels are fantastic, compared to another custom wheel manufacturer I was talking to whose weights were closer to 25 lbs. per wheel. Very tempting indeed!

I like Volks too and have always wanted some, but could never justify paying for them. Wanted the various CE28Ns and TE-37s in 17x10s in +44/+45/+50. The runs were too infrequent, lead times too long, and cost too high for me to justify paying over 2x my current wheels (17x9.5 SA72R).
Now I want to run big rubber, and there's nothing available from Volk in 18s that fit stock fenders.

It's not completely blind territory, there's a bit of precedence out there - Junky, rush2redline, and Nate Tempest have all run wheels wider than 10" and have run tires wider than 255.
I have a set of 3mm, 5mm, 10mm, and 12mm spacers to figure out the fine fitment up front.
It's going to be a long time before this whole things pans out.
Likely won't get the 265 setup on until Dec/Jan - need to get the wheels, install my new hubs, bearings, and extended studs up front, and kill my current set of CR-S tires on my 17s.
And realistically won't even try getting 285s on there until 2026... hahaha
Having two kids at 5 and 2.5 yrs old has eaten up my free time to be able to track and use up sets of tires at the rate that I used to (never mind the added expenses that kids cost).
