Do you recognize this car?
 

I posted this on Pro-touring but I haven't had any responses. Does anyone recognize this car? I know it was built by Hot Rods and Custom Stuff. What is the backspacing on the rear wheels? I really like the way it looks.

You might try calling them, but if I had to guess, looks like a 4.5" BS on a 12" wide wheel.

I agree with Jon on his estimation. I have a very similar designed HRE wheel with 6" BS on an 18x12 and it's no where near that.

It has to be 5" or less backspacing (from a 12" wide wheel standpoint)

I used to have the specs on that combo, when my car was there. It might have been 4 3/4" or some other stranger fraction. I remember the offsets being just a hair different than what most people run. I know they had to roll the lip on the back to get it to fit the 345/19, but I think most do. When I ordered wheels I decided to use Jon's suggestions for offsets, rather than Hotrods and Custom stuff's and everything fit fine, of course I ordered 18s instead of 19s all around.

Their website doesn't have any specs except that they are 19x12" and 345 wide tires. Frank at Prodigy suggested 5.3"-5.6". Everyone knows Frank is the guy to go to about this stuff. Do you think it's under 5?

HREs, Forgeline, Fikse, Boze fall in that mid 5" range on 6" lip 19s. Under 5" with 6" lip would require a pad over 2 1/4". If you looking for a hard backspace measurement to cut your rear, I can handle all that for you. Done lots of these both in the shop and with customers we are project planning for. If you decide you want these HRE's let me know. We can mill on the pad to adjust the backsapace if the rear is already done. But if you chasing that 6" lip, and I suspect you are, were going to be in the mid 5" backspace range.

Looks like a 4.75 to me...:D

Yours is 5.4 Todd

Doooooh.....it's actually 5.25 and my forgelines are 5.4. Brain fart..

I was ready to order the Fikse wheels until I read the thread about what Fikse is going through. Even if there is a 1% chance they will make it, I still want to hold on until I know for sure. I've had CCW's on my Corvette and Iforged wheels on my Viper but I don't think those wheels look good on 69' Camaros and HRE's are in the same category. Those wheels look good on modern sports cars and luxury cars. I feel like I don't even want a 69' Camaro if I can't get Fikse Profil 5 wheels for it. Not really, but you know what I mean. I've seen you help many of the members here and over at pro-touring, and when I figure out what wheels to order, I will definitely order them from you Frank.
