the frt wheels are 18 by 8.5 with a 56mm offset with a 255/40r18 bfg kdw2 and rears are 18 by 9.5 with a 40mm offset with a 295 35r18. the wheels are set in 8mm all the way around will need a spacer if i want them in the to set out to factory. the frt wheels were shipped wrong, they sent 17's instead of the 18's thats why the frt is not pictured

Could you try to post the phitcures again...?
I'm looking into getting new wheel for my sy since I also is going to mount 13" brakes on it this winter... Been driving it on the track with the stock breaks and that not good at all..!!!!
So would be nice to see another sy with the same setup....

I'll give you a dollar if you put about 1100 psi water pressure on those wheelwells for about 2 minutes.

Looks good.

What happened to the center caps in the first pic?

i left them out because i need to trim the cv shaft down so the center cap will fit. just doing mock up right now. truck is going for paint in a couple of weeks, but i do have the tires mounted and balanced now.

Those are going to be the new popular wheel I think for the SYTY crowd ---

To me, wheels always set a vehicle apart. These particular wheels do not impress me at all. I will have to wait until the Baer's are behind them and then re-evaluate but for now, I have seen much, much better looks. Maybe it is just me, but the stock wheel appearance is hard to beat. I know they are not compatible with brake upgrade packages though.

Re: pics of my sy #2695

I guess I was basing that statement on the fact that the corvette wheels ALWAYS come out with reproductions and are cheap, big, and wide.

Sorta like the older zr1 and z06 wheels were the old popular "upgrade".

I wish the Sportmachines wheels were a little cheaper because honestly those are my favorite too ... keeping with your point of the ORIGINALITY. Thats what will keep them exclusive though :) ---
