Wheel suggestions Fat 5 spoke with HUGE lip... HELP!

I was looking into getting SP1's with SBC finish, but ive heard they are out of buisiness and im exploring new options. I want a car that LOOKS good... im not tracking it and not street racing, so im not so worried about weight. I'm looking at 18x9 and 18x10-10.5 with a BIG lip and fat 5 spoke. I want something so shiny that it hurts to look at in the sun. Any suggestions? I want strong wheels and i dont mind spending some money to get something nice. Suggestions would be nice. I know that Work wheels are gonna come up, but any others out there that i havent seen or thought about?

They are out of business? I thought they just discontinued the wheel.

I you want a fat lip, and a similar wheel take a look at the Junction Produce Scara's.

You can also check out J-Line wheels- they have a nice selection of 5-spoke wheels.

i really like the junction produce scara's, they look really nice. Where would be a good place to purchase these from? What should i get as my offset on a 18x9/18x10 set of these? It's hard to tell from pictures where the wheel isnt on a car, but do they sell a chrome (looking) finish? I realize that most wheels like this arent actually chrome, but i want something that looks comparable.

JP is a great choice. Much more rare than some of these other ones...

i dont like the fat 5's that get bigger as they get to the edge of the rim (like the last set linked to 350z.com). Damn those jp's are nice looking, but they are hella expensive everywhere im looking

what would be the wait time if i ordered those wheels? will it take a while? Im guessing it could be different a month from now when i order, but i just know the sp1's i ordered i waited like 5 months before i cancelled my order. (tirerack called and asked if i still wanted them... i said yes and they told me they would be in within the next 6 months)

i tracked down a post by tire rack about the wheel and emailed them. I didnt find it on their site, but i hope they make the sp1's. If not im seriously looking at the scara's in black with a polished lip. I think that would look good on my black G with blacked out windows
