I plan on having custom replica GTA wheels made in the exact same sizes that you had done. Also, what is the contact info for the company that made your wheels? I'd like to see if they can beat the $1,500 per wheel quote I got for the wheels I plan on having made.
Thanks man.....I hand fabricated the tubs myself. I wanted to keep the rear seats as well as the seat belt anchors because I have a little one at home now. The wolfe kit is WAY to intrusive. I call mine a super mini tub.

I'd give you the contact info but it won't do you any good...he closed up shop about 2 months after I got my wheels...nice huh? Asshat. If I were to do it over again I'd look into Forgeline's. They have a concave series now.

Thanks, man. I know what you mean about wanting to retain the rear seat and stuff. I guess I'll just have a shop hand fab my tubs as well.

Not a major concave but the C6 wheels in the 18x10.5 offer some. I'm running the 18x10.5 on all 4 with Nitto NT05's lowered 1.25

whats funny is that IROC looks completely stock...except for the wheels lol. Wheels make the ride...changing up the wheels on a TA or SS goes from 'eh see those every day' to 'holy **** thats f'ing sick man!'..

But it is bad *** none-the-less! Ive always wanted to build a modern 3rd gen (LSx/trans/suspension)...they are just bad *** looking! All of those posted are beautiful cars!

MylesF7,

What is the finish on the F14's? looks like a machined face or maybe polished with brushed centers?
