Most posts get none or maybe one comment, but the post on 12 spoke wheels got a few people interested. 
 This is the billet wheel from IK Works Japan that Irish Rich mentioned. 
 Rich and Zeeman both mentioned this wheel from W&W. It will be 
produced in sizes 16"and 19". Whats' up with all those hub holes? That 
looks like a problem waiting to happen. to be fair, read the latest 
comments from the source.
Here's the Performance Machine billet version Rich mentioned seen 
here on Cole Foster's Special K. I'd forgot about them until Rich spoke 
up.
Besides the trouble to manufacture, to me, they don't cut it. The 
center hub where the spokes connect is very narrow making the two side's
 spokes almost inline which defeats the dimensional look of the 
originals. Instead it produces a less interesting wagon/stage coach 
wheel effect.
