Looking to get ideas for wheel and tire setups. Always ran the off-set ( front&rear) just not sure what I want to run on my 12'. Looking for a nice set up of big rear tires. Thanks guys:rockon:

Foof, can you give a little more info on your setup? Springs, wheel and tire size, and offset and backspacing. I'm looking at having a set of Trueforged made for my Boss. Your setup is just what I'm looking for. Don't worry about someone stealing your look though, I'm looking at a different wheel model.

Sportline springs

Front - 20x9 -265/35/20 Nittos
Rear - 20x11 - 305/35/20 Nitto DR's.

As for the backspacing, I believe it might be a lil different on your car, but I'm not 100% sure about that. Steve@ TF has the fitments down really well so that won't be a concern for you. Your car will look amazing on some TF wheels, you should definetely do it. :rockon:

Hmm

They are pricey but u get what u pay for. There made in the USA stamped right on the wheel that means alot to me. They run true on the machine with very good tolerances and when u hit pot holes they don't bend like other wheels. Super easy to clean and actually I clean the wheel every other time I wash my car. I'm not sure why they stay so clean. I have had every wheel possible and they have the best finish.
Weld Craft modified the wheels for me and they even mentioned how well they were made.

I like the way they look, but they are not worth the money people ask for those wheels in my opinion.

Widdened SuperSnake to 12in with a Toyo R888 315-35-20.You can't go any
widder without rubbing or hanging outside the quarter panel. The SS wheel is the perfect offset to do this with.

Your cars look great, guys! :beer: I used to have the Steeda Spyder wheels on my car. The rears were 20 x 11" and I had the Nitto Invo 315/35/20 tires on them. The fat tires definitely look good on our cars!

I decided to take the sneaky route. I bought the 18x10 OE reps from AM and threw on some 275 drag radials.
