Does this look like an original stock ’69 Camaro? George Poteet's 1969 Camaro looks pretty original on the outside (it still has the original body shell), but it’s actually the latest pro-touring monster to roll out of Roadster Shop! It’s powered by a Chevrolet Performance LS3 mated to a 4L60 transmission and rides on Roadster Shop’s bolt-on SPEC chassis, AFCO Racing coilovers, Wilwood disc brakes, Goodyear tires, and Roadster Shop-designed Forgeline RS-OE1 wheels finished in Satin Black!

What's the weight of those wheels compared to something like a GA3 in similar sizes? Love the look. Really like them for doing the COPO/ZL1 look for my car but able to clear 14" brakes.

Judging by the RS in the part number, I would say this is a custom wheel that you can only get through Roadster Shop.

Yes the RS-OE1 is designed to work with the factory 10.5 inch hubcaps.

A LOT heavier than a GA3. Will depend on size (the difference in weight gets bigger, as the wheel gets bigger), but about 8-10 lbs heavier than a GA3 of the same size.

This wheel is really messing with my mind. Had decided after a looong time to go with the forgeline cr3 for my build. And is ready to order. And this eheels shows up. Absolutely love it.
Consider to sell one of my kidneys and buy them!

Haha Mark... that would be something! Probably if I rob the bank. Actually emailing with someone at forgeline now to get the right sizes. And it will be the cr3's. but this is really a nice wheel also. But way over budget. Love your work!
