If you find the style you want but not in the size you want? Just get 4in the narrower size & get then 2 of them custom widened by Wheels America Wheel Repair. That is how I got my 2 17"x11" ROH Snypers for my GTA. Bought 4 9"s & had 2 widened to 11". Nothing lost in the strength by the welding & no problems getting tires balanced on them. Too bad they (5 lugs) won't fit my 2002 Sierra.

Just fair warning getting centerline to build you "custom" wheels to your specs. I had them build me two sets of 16's for track wheels and they got the backspacing wrong on both sets and were a pain to deal with. One of the hoops was milled off center and ended up cracking because the metal was too thin. But they were cheap, initially.
Whomever you go with, I am interested to see how your 17" track setup works out. I have been pondering the same thing and using the 390 M&H so I can do a big brake kit.

I to like centerlines alot, but ive found out their is a reason they are so cheap... quality is hit or miss and their customer service is complete ****... Ive ordered "in stock" wheels before and waited a month, and just a few days ago cancelled my order for those exact rapid wheels after 3 weeks with no single word.. Been that way for years too..
