the spec that im going for is 18x8 in the front with a 245 or 255 and 18x9 in the rear with a 275 or 295. The company can make the rim custom for me such as deeper lip and for my application as well. i really like these rims. something different you know?

your lip is only going to get deeper with the more backspacing you go with. With only a 9" wheel in the back, you probably wont have too large of a lip. My boyds have about a 3" lip in the back and have a 6" bs reverse mount

Well after doing alot of talkin with the guys at Boze Forged im going with the Friction Wheel. Much Much better. It lookes like the stixx but a little bit more activity. check it out and i agree on the other rim lookes more for an SUV

You're going to have to do something about those drums in the back now. While you are at it, consider my car too. I want to do something with my brakes.

Those are both pretty nice rims, if I had alot of money I'd buy them both but put the second one on my camaro and the first one on my jimmy, cause like the others said the first ones look like there for an suv.

wow i didnt like the rim that much till i saw it on the car. cant wait to see pics.
Cool cool I like those a lot! I cant wait t o see it I feel your pain in waiting. Just get everything lined up with the tires so you can get em on asap when they come in. I would say that it almost takes about two months from order to door. But there worth the wait. Good luck when and what size did you go with? Thanks, Shawn

Well the size im going with is 18x8 in the front with a little lip and 18x9 in the back with a really deep dish. The tire size im going with is:
FRONT- 255/40/18
REAR - 275 or 295/40/18 BFG G-Force T/A KD
Im going to get the tires at a tire company in town so i will have the free balanced and all the other crap. But yeah i cant wait at all.

Here is a question for you guys... I just bought a 4th gen rear today for $350 with posi, disk, from a LS1 SS camaro. YEAH!!!!! Before i order the wheels should i just tell the guy that i want the 4th gen specs in the rear? since it wider than the orginal rear end.
