Wire rims resizing

Im chasing a supplier of wire/spoked rims to get an 18" rim for my Guzzi Nevada.
Ive posted before but thought Id make this request spcific.
The wheel sizzes on the Nevada are 16" rear and 18" front that tips the bike up at the front giving it the 'rearing horse' cruiser look.
I need to change that. One way is to drop the front using the forks but Id prefer to have the wheels the same size.
So, I need a new rim with appropriate length spokes to suit the Guzzi Nevada.
It is a tubeless tyre so the spokes have O rings. Just another complication.
Anyone know of a good supplier of custom wheels, here in Australia or overseas I dont mind.
This will most likely be the single most expensive part of the rebuild, given that the engine is running well.
Thanks for reading

If you're resourceful you don't need a custom rim. How many spokes does your rim have? If 40, there are plenty of 18" Harley rims. If 36, lots of Japanese 18" rims available.
