[DeTomaso] 18' or 19" wheels, 13" wide?

[Dan Courtney]

MD, to clarify my post I am considering 18" or 19" and in Monterey I was told they stopped making 345's in 18", so better to go 19".
The trick is, I want the rears to be 13.5".
I have a set of 19" Cobra Bulitt replicas from my last Silver State run, but they are too skinny for regular use (9" and 10").
Ideally, I use the 10" for the front and find someone making these in 19" x 13.5" but I've checked with several manufacturers and come up dry.

            Dan,
            Tires will be the challenge.  Elliot Kushner who had replica GT5 finally went with 18 or19" wheels and tires and ran them at Silver State before selling the car....said he had no problems with them.....are you trying to find these for street and show?

              Does anyone have a suggestion on where to find some used or new wheels in these sizes?
              After another 1,000 mile cruise I'm thinking this could be a good way to lower the rpms from my current 24.5" diameter tires (15" x 13.5").

              Thank You,'
