Rim Size??

Anyone know a good site that will give you reccommended rim sizes for the size tire you want?

I am also looking for a somewhat exotic tire that is hard to find. Same size as a viper rear tire (or close to it).. should be 335/30/19 I believe.

Cant find any good tire/rim sites =(

Actually I was looking for 19s rear and 18s front.. I know there is a 335/30/19.. but what rim to go on? Some places suggest a 12.0-14.0 :o But where can I find a nice rim that wide?? Anything that wide are drag type rims like centerline convo pros.. I would like something like this..

They have 18x7s for the front, but I would need like a 19x13 for the rear.. do these companies do custom widths? Should be something simple like adding a few inches in between...

V8 - You could get away with a 335/30 on an 11" wheel. Problem is the wheels you find in 19"x11+" will be for "exotic" cars (hell...the Jaguar XJ220s came with 335s factory on a 13" wide wheel if memory serves me). Finding good loking 19s that big shouldn't be a problem...but rims that wide could turn out to be scarse. I'd start looking around for shops that can widen wheels. I know a few people who turned stock 16"x7" Mustang "pony" wheels into 16"x9" wheels Same look...just fatter.
