Just curious as to how you accommodated the offset allowed by the 1 piece wheel on this car.

The backspace on the 19x12 starts at 7.5" and can be higher. This wheel works well for the guys that want to do the mini tub but may not want to have the rear end shortened. I am not exactly sure what Larry has done but looking at the numbers, I would assume that the car was tubbed to fit the widths but the axle was left at standard length or just not shortened very much. Most people when they are going with a 2 piece or 3 piece wheel, want that super deep lip in the rear. In order to achieve that, the car requires tubbing and the rear end shortened, The GA1R, as well as the rest of our 1 piece monoblock wheels can fit the needs of the builders that like the look of the concave one piece, want the wide widths but do not need to have the additional labor and down time of having the rear end altered.
Beautiful build Larry!!!

Got it, just looked up an older thread and saw that he wasn't running as deep a lip as I thought and most of the added width in the front is to the inside.
How thick is the center lock adapter? It looks like 18x11 has a minimum backspace of about 7.5"
Not that it looked bad before, but it looks awesome with the monoblocks.

The 18x11 starts at 7.06"bs. The centerlock adaptor is about 3/8" thick
