The closest looking wheel to the Yenko Wheels available today are the ones made by Team 3 www.etwheels.com , in my opinion.

Just looked at the wheels on that website, I think the wheels in the cast version may be close! I am looking into them myself! Thanks Stefano

Vintage wheel works is currently working on reproducing the American Torque Thrust wheel
from the 60's. It will be 15X7 with the same off-set offered during that period. Vintage claims it will be approx. 6 months before it is offerd. They will update their web site as it progresses www.vintagewheelworks.com.
Phone number is 562-906-8600. Cost will be approx. $800.00 for the set. This may be a good alternative to finding an original set.

Do The Vintage Wheels come in 15", I thought that they were only going to make 16"?
I ordered a couple of sets of Team III's vintage 5 (?) cast wheels. They use the original molds from the 1960s, they differ in that they are two piece to vary the offset and they say no problem with 15" and factory disk brakes.
I'll post some pics in a few weeks when they arrive.
