I love those wheels, thought about getting the same for my Nova but the backspacing issue has made me change my mind. I need more than center offset and they don't offer it, and won't custom build them either, which I think is stupid!
Either way, sure they'll look good on the pewter car!

How about brake fit. I'm assuming you have Strange or some other after market brake system. Would they fit on stock brakes?

Oh by the way, they look great. According to their site 5" looks like the most B/S until you get into the 15x12. What would a 30x10.5x15 tire look like a 12" rim?

I can't even put the stock rotors on...They wouldn't fit over the 5/8" studs
I had to space the wheel out with washers for fitting purposes.

I have the same wheels except in the beadlock version. There is no way these will fit a stock F-Body brake. I belive the 2 piece front will fit stock brakes without grinding though.

I had to narrow the rear to work with the BS I chose. The wheel bolts up like any other wheel. I don't know how well they'll work with stock calipers
