Not sure you're going to see them on f-bodies considering a set costs as much as these cars are worth these days.

Now corvettes, sure, especially the widebody c6's (z06, zr1, grandsports), but then again they are 60-100K cars.

I think Forgeline has a concave series that look badass. Been doing a bunch of research on wheels and so far I like these the best.

Yall freaking suck posting up these pics with these wheels, haha. It's making me reconsider what wheels I had originally picked out for my car when I get the stuff for me to work on my build.

These were made by a small wheel company out in California. Made to my specs. They have deep concave forgings front and rear which I don't believe have been done before. As far as I know, these are the only set in existance..
18x9's in front 18x12's in the rear with Toyo R888's 335/30/18's. Had to mini tub the car to fit the rears but you would never know by looking inside the car. Still have rear seats and seat belts.

Thanks for the compliments guys...I took a risk on these and glad they turned out as good as they did.

Some more pics.

^ How are the wear on the Toyo tires? I like the looks of them but want something that will be good on longevity.
