I could build you a number of 2 piece wheels that would fit the bill. Check out our website at www.driverzinc.com and let me know which wheels you like and I will put a quote together for you.

We've done Intros, Boyd, and Billet Specialties in either 20x14 or 20x15 with 4.5" or 5" bs. Not too many if any at all can do 4" bs.

I actually had a conversation with Scott and Keith at Billet Specialties about this very same subject not too long ago... You'll notice they have added this verbage to their "pro-touring" series:

"Backspace is shown for 3/4in. caliper clearance wheels. Call our sales dept. at 800-245-5382 for available backspace on 1-1/4in., 1-1/2in., & 1-7/8in. caliper clearance wheels."

Reason being is their listed min and max backspace shown is not their absolute min and max. I know, confusing, right? I had a customer who needed a 4.00" backspace, but because they listed a 4.625" min on their site that is what we ordered, and he elected to run a spacer. When I received the wheel, I would have thought it would have had their maximum pad length which is a 1.875" pad... to get that min backspace, NOPE. It had a .75" pad. So I called right away and put that to bed. Why not show that you can run a smaller backspace with a smaller pad? I guess what seems like common sense to ME isn't always the case to everyone. I would have listed the min possible backspace as what it could be with the maximum pad length possible. I know a lot of old Pro-street guys that need 20x15s with 3.75-4.25" of backspace to update their cars, but we looked right over these wheels because the listed min said 4.625".

"And if you don't know, now you know...."
