Sorry, no big updates. I do have the tires mounted on the wheels and the front's are on the car. All the cutting is done in the back and I've started the reconstruction phase. The "frame" is closed back up now and the new rear spring adjusters are welded in. Work has ground to a halt for now cause I'm working strange long hours right now at work. I'm hoping to be able to work on it saturday if I don't have to go into work.Originally posted by WMCC Gary View Post

I will say that I think the wheels will be a good fit for the look I was going for on the car. When I took the wheels and tires to get mounted, after seeing the wheels the manager asked me what they were going on. When I told him it's just a camaro, he said..."let me guess, an IROC right?" haha....How did you know...he said they looked like a retro style IROC wheel to him....nice!
I am really happy with the deep concave forging. I lost a little bit of wheel lip due to this design, but the deep concave wheel center really gives the wheel a dynamic deep look.sigpicTurbo Charged LS1/T56

Hard to get a good shot in the cramped garage right now but here's a preview of the rear.

The rears are 335/30/18 fronts are 265/35/18. They are R compound Toyo R888's.Originally posted by Lucky SOB View PostThose look really nice James! And those tires are super aggressive... what size did you go with?
Tell me about it....I'll probably have a nervous breakdown the first time I drive on these...lol My old Toyo's were ridiculous when they were new, these are going to be way worse.Originally posted by scholtmj View PostLooks sweet! When are you going to put the 3M clear tape on the lower half of the entire car? Those look sticky
