Mike:

Searching for wheels by size and bolt pattern is not on our site.

Our wheel fitment database is pretty comprehensive, at least for street
applications on stock or mildly modified vehicles. We've found that the vast
majority of customers wanting to search by size or bolt pattern are wanting
to work far outside the practical boundary (not that racers would), and are
trying to find a fitment that doesn't have proper load capacity, clearance,
hub-centricity, etc. Inevitably, their next question is always, "do you sell
adapters...?"

We do have the ability to provide this sort of info over the phone. I would
recommend calling Dan (ext. 294) or Bruce (ext. 289), and tell them what
you're looking for and trying to fit. They can help with this sort of info.
And if you're really working off the menu, we do have the Kosei K1s in a
handful of "blanks", that we can have CNC machined to your specific bolt
pattern and centerbore. Also, for several of the popular lightweight wheel
lines we carry, we usually publish the list of diameters, widths and weights
in our Grassroots Motorsports ad. This may give you a good starting point at
least.
