aah, thanks so so much!

i spend a few hours yesterday digging and looking to no avail.

just looking, i guess "custom" means one offs because im not finding those paticular wheels for sale anywhere online, at least through google. i did, however, find some good american racing wheel options that i did like.

thanks again.

Looks like CARR uses those wheels on both their Pilot and Ridgeline. Their signs say AR custom ATX series, but they look a lot more like the FUEL from the AR series: Linkster. Looks like the center cap may be custom on the CARR vehicles.

id have to say i agree with that assessment.

next question, the only available wheel for the pilot lug pattern is a 17x8 wheel with a 25 offset. does that seem like too low of an offset for a taller tire (possible rubbing issues, after a 2/1 lift) ?

Width is also likely the issue. But the info doesn't list the tire size. As for Custom, I wonder if those wheels were specially made with the offset/lugnut pattern.

You might also consider having a different design powder coated black.

Those were run shots to find. Nice to see something different.
