      New Rushforth Super Spokes

      What do you guys think of my new Rushforth super spokes? I had to work out some rubbing issues but finally got them running great on the '68 RS/SS Camaro. I would like to thank Jon Henson of DriverzInc.com and Jason Rushforth for spending time with me in fixing the front tire rubbing issue. They are the greatest when it comes to customer service and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to purchase a new set of wheels and tires.

      Those look GREAT Mark!
      I am getting some Billet Specialties from Jon as well, should be here any time. (I almost went with the super spokes as well)
      I like the stance of your car, what have you done to the suspension?
      I can not wait until mine arrive so I can post pics also

      Thanks for the compliment. You can't go wrong dealing with Jon. I know that you'll love your new wheels and that they will make your car look great. As far as my car goes, I replaced the rear leaf springs with new 2" lowering springs from Detriot Speed and added 1.5" lowering coil springs in the front. I also replaced all four shocks with QA1 stocker star adjustable shocks through Summit Racing. Everything else is stock. Please post pics of your new Billet Specialities wheels as soon as you get them on!

      I know that the pics that I have are not the best. They were taken with an old digital camera and don't really show how good the wheels actually look. I'm working on getting new, better quality pics and will post them as soon as I can. Thanks for looking.

      Those do look really really good, and the red stripe on them works too.

      I'm old too, so, add another vote for BIGGER PICS!!
