Add me to the list of guys wanting pictures of these on the car and details of whether or not grinding is a must... keep us posted! Thanks... and NICE wheels!

I can appreciate the optimism, but there is no way those are going to fit without some sort of grinding. They still use the same stepped lip that all the other wheels use, there are only a few manufacturers in the world that make the outer hoops for all the wheel companies. It is going to take a 15" soft lip (no steps) for them to fit on our cars perfectly. Even the wheels 'made to fit' for our cars still require a welded on spacer on the backside to clear.

Yep those look sick! But like Nine Ball said will they fit? Even if you grind. I am starting to realize that I am gonna have to grind to run the 15x10's...even considering narrowing the rear just to run a deeper lip.

Hello Alex can you please send me a pm ASAP, it won't let me send you one.
If I don't hear from you soon I will be forced to leave you a negative feedback and report to the negative feedback section. I thought everything was cool, haven't heard from you in a week but you can post on this board? I appologize if I am out of line but I don't see any explanation so far for this?

ive run a lot of different wheels. while i dont have a 4th gen, i can say that all the centerline wheels i have run, i have to use a HALF INCH LESS backspacing than other wheel makers.
those are some bad *** looking wheels.
all three of them.
LEE! that split 5 spoke would look SOOOOO sweet the way your car is setup.

Ok guys I have an update on the fronts the rears should be here some time early next week. Came home today and the fronts were here went outside to test fit and wow I really couldn't believe they fit perfect no grinding and no spacers needed. Now if the rears fit as good as the fronts I will be happy as hell. These wheels have a thick mounting pad which is why they fit so well. I took some pictures so everyone would have an idea. No tires mounted because I wanted to test fit first. These wheels might come close to fitting LS1 cars. I will post more pics when I receive the rears and get tires mounted. If someone local with an LS1 wanted to test fit I would be willing to try so everyone knows what these wheels fit.
