John, I've used these guys over the past 30 years or so for wheels and tyres on various cars and they have always been able to get wheels in days as opposed to weeks. If you do a search on their site each model should tell you the delivery/lead time.

Are you looking for sensible J widths (9/10 inch) or stock 7J crap?

I would of thought the J rim width would be determined by tyre width .

Why would you want to stretch the tyre ?

because 7J is not wide enough for a 235/245 tyre especially when you lower the aspect ratio for larger diameter rim

"Stock" 16" TVR rims are 7.5J and are quite happy with 245/45 rears & 225/45 fronts.
