Do you recognize this car?
Does anyone have any information on this car? I know it was built by Hot Rods and Custom Stuff. What's the backspacing on the rear wheels? I really like the way they look.

I would say that is a 6" lip which is a 5.3 to 5.6" BS depending on how much pad / brand.
What brand of wheels are you going to order?
You can check out EmptyNest on our Web page with Forgelines with 6" lip 19 X 12 and Todd's Payback with Boze 6" Lip 19 X 12

I have all those pictures saved from a while back. They are definitely awesome cars. I want to go with Fikse Profil 5's but I know they are having some problems. My back-up is to with HRE. But I really want to see how Fikse ends up first b/c they are my all time favorite wheels for first gen Camaros.

Just seen your email also. I don't know how Fikse recovers quite honestly. You need to start thinking in alphabetical order Boze, Forgeline, HRE, iForged, we can do any of the above and can handle you rear width and back spacing no problem. And we also sell all the other parts you asked about in the email. One stop shopping.

Someone should buy the rights to that style wheel if Fikse goes under.

There are tons that are close to the Fiske and I'm the most anal retentive wheel guy on the planet. Problem with most is hat they are 2 piece meaning you will have to fork over a body part to get them wider than 10s. The largest hoops are 10" meaning you have to buy two and have them welded together.
In the end I just got a 3 piece wheel from Frank. He is great to deal with by the way.
Many of the 3 piece companies offer hidden bolt options. Exepct to spend a few weeks staring at random pictures! lol. Good luck.
I think you can get the Forgeline S03S with a hidden bolt. not quite a Fiske but close.
