    270R4546122_L_075ce1f8-de31-497a-a3fa-80acd0e71fbf.jpg Does anyone know if somebody makes a wheel like this with a 5 1/2 bolt pattern?

    I have wheels very similar to that on a roadster with the 10 spokes in a small Ford pattern made by E/T. They are about 5-10 years old so it is possible that they are also being made in 5 1/2. Good luck.

    Its hard to find the wheels you really want, I just went thur this exact situation and got these in 5x5.5 also made by Rocket, YMMV fullsizeoutput_1a8d.jpeg

    Now I just need to find out if that style wheel with the offered 2 inch back space will work with my Buick drums.

    Another option is PS Vintage Wheels formerly PS Engineering.
    I had them make these fronts, also offered as a bolt-on wheel.

    Rears are 10 inch wide, requested back spacing made to the maximum.

    From their website.
    Custom backspacings in the two piece line are very open and standard
