OZ Volcano

You know, these look pretty similar to the Boxster wheels. They don't have the curve but they're still pretty close.

I don't think OZ makes them anymore, but you could probably pick up some used ones fairly cheap.

Tires/wheels combo

The largest size tire you could run on 18" rims with the correct overall diameter is P245/35R18. Unless the inner and outer fenders are modifed and offsets changed, this would be the one to go with.

I'm assuming those toskawnas didn't go through for you since you needed to buy 25 sets and there was hardly any interest.

How much are we really talking about to get the real deal done, or should I just aim for some similar rims because they're 1/4th the price...

Havent found much similar, wish we could get more interest
in the other wheels, but no biggy.

billet aluminum adaptors to make them fit, but they are too
thick and would make the offset of the rim to negative
closer to a +20mm, ..which would cause some rubbing issues
mininum.

...because spokes suck.



Osmos Orbital (or Orbitale) wheels have been in development for over a decade. Similar designs been on concept and movie cars for quite a while, but recently some custom bikes have actually made their way to the streets sporting these actual units. I suspect that these will start popping up more frequently in the next few years and custom cars will start adopting them. I think it'll be a long time before they appear on any production cars though.
