Exclamation Need Metal Shop to make Show Wheel Stand for car

Hey everyone. I am looking for a metal shop to produce a stand for my car.

Purpose: at shows I will be removing my driver side wheel to expose the Big Brake Kit and coilovers as well as display the wheel/tire next to the car. I am in need of a metal stand that has holes for my 5x100 lug pattern and extends to the ground so that I do not utilize jack stands to hold the car up.

I don't have any picture but essentially it's a Pyramid with a rounded top (shape of the wheel hub) with the lug nut holes for 5x100 drilled then goes to the ground keeping the car at the height it would be if the wheel were still on. It will need to be thick sturdy metal and I can either paint/polish or powder coat it so finish is not an issue.

Anyone knows what I'm talking about/have pics or would be able to build it? If so for how much? Thanks for your help everyone

-Dan

ill see if i can swing by tuesday or wed next week it just depends when we are puting the new bbk on. I finally found a pic of what im talking about. im prettysure it will have to be machined. I do have a quote from one shop out of state but its alittle higher then i feel it needs to be. Let me know if you all would be able to fab something like this. If so i would more likely then not have the rest of TeamSolo interested in purchasing some as well





i like the look of the 1st one though i feel it needs a wider bottom to give little chance of rotating and the car falling over
