Call Diversified Products Marketing (www.buyfordracing.com) (734)-459-1030 they don't have any listed on their website, but I think they used to stock the wheels and may be able to help your cause.

They are obsolete from Ford and since it was a 1 year offering and made to fit specific rotors for proper offset nobody has felt there is a market to justify making them as reproductions. I have a set but I won't let them go...
