Does anyone make these?

I really want a set of factory 16 or 17s chrome, if there's an option for wider ones that I can place on the rear I've rather that.

The WS6 5-spokes are 17" x 9.0" 50mm offset. I've never seen a stock style 5-spoke 16" wheel wider than 8.0".

The guy at ws6.com had his stock WS6 rear wheels widened to 17" x 11.0". Requires a highly skilled aluminum welder, and because the width can only be added at the rear of the wheel, he had to run 1" spacers to keep the tires off the inner fenders, and relocate the jounce bumper. Here's a link to the site:

That sounds like a bit much then. The factory 17s would be what I'm after it seems. I believe my Fittipaldi Tubolares are 9.5-10 inch.
