Default Volk Progressiv Spoke in 18"?

Anyone know if the volk progressiv spoke are available in 18"?
I may have to go for the 19s, if the 18s are not made. Want to go with an 8.5 up front and a 9.5 rear, but need help on correct tire size.

I've only ever seen 19" and tire size I have is 245/35/19 and 275/35/19. If you want 18" there's a few very similar wheels (well, more or less) that only come in 18" and are nearly 1/4 the price (buy one, get the other three for free compared to a set of Progressiv Spokes).

2nd one on this page...

AZA Z-1 (Hyper Silver)

Those prices are less than 1/2 what I paid (for the Volks), and I would have considered it had I known about them.

no, the progressive spoke only comes in 19". those rims are simply beautiful, but i am unwilling to get 19" rims.

here is the link to the rays japan spec sheet for the progressive spoke wheel:

the rays forged magnesium wheels come in 18" and 19", but those go for over a grand for each rim. there is no way i am spending that kind of money.

those look similar to the forged spoke wheels.

Anyone have pics of progressive spokes on a Z? I'm seriously considering these rims, but I'd like to see pics first.

Do you have more pics of those rims on that PPW? I was thinking the SF challenge looked best on PPW but those rims are causing me to second guess.

I like these wheels, I'm surprised at how uncommon they are.

They were more expensive than the other Volks (could be reason #1). Also, no one really has them (or at least that's what I felt when I bought mine), plus when I put out a bid request, a grand total of *one* person replied with the set up I asked for. *One* other replied without tires (rims only).

On my web site I have request forums also (people post what they want and people post offers) and sometimes the requests don't get too many replies, but generally more than one or two so I was a bit surprised. I thought I'd have more to choose from.
