Default You should be able to get custom offsets made...

Most of these high-end rims are built to order (Customer specified offset and bolt pattern).

Default Yes the wheel centers are consistent and the rim halves define the offset......

So you are getting a custom fit regarding rim width and offset but the A-clearance (spoke to hub) is the same for their wheels. "Classics" are 1.6" for "A" and the "profil" series offer another 8mm I believe.

Each wheel will likely set you back about 2.5 ounces of gold :P
