I have a long standing relationship with Dave Schardt, the owner of Forgeline wheels. It started after I had worked on quite a few special build projects with other top quality wheel companies. Forgeline has been the only company that became a real partner with vested interest in getting a project right. They have delivered flawless wheels that fit exactly as designed and done it one time. That is rare when it is on a new model getting ready for SEMA. Long story short I have a great deal of respect for Dave and his TEAM at Forgeline. My respect extends to the intellectual property. I ask anyone that is interested in Forgeline wheels or the details of Forgeline wheels I use in my builds to contact them and discuss their wheel and project needs directly with Forgeline.

No worries. I respect that. I was just interested in what you guys decided on. I always take measurements prior to ordering any wheel. I need to get my car back running before I even look at wheels. Ups is killing me right now.

Z/28 DSSV coilovers going on. Going to need to do something about that 6" fender gap though

I thought this was a road track car, not an off-road track car...

Holy mother of Gaps...

Still too high so we continue to work on the manufacturing process to get it down.

I like that you are working so hard to get the price down. I wish it happened sooner but we'll all wait. Thanks for the effort.

Track alignment today for all the new suspension parts.

I'm supposed to be on the track Friday, but forecast is for 1-3 inches of snow tomorrow and then 35 degrees on Friday. Looks like I might be doing a little of this:

Ummm, is it too late for event insurance?

SSSoon · 03-04-2015, 07:54 PM

Some last nice shots before I wad her up in the snow at VIR Friday.

Kinda nice to see her all back together again, rather than in pieces, huh?

Firefighter · 03-04-2015, 08:24 PM

That car is sick. Total bad ass.

Those 19's are the hot ticket for the track but jeez the wheel gap. That is why I need to do 20's for my dual purpose DD/Track car.

The wheel gap is temporary, until the knuckle drops come in. That will take another inch out of the gap. Will be tight.
