Ron is a big hearted guy with a wheel buying obsession.

We have tried intervention virtually via this site but it hasn't done any good.

Now the stuff he buys is top shelf it's not budget stuff but I've heard he even has wheels sitting in other peoples garages due to space concerns.

Think Emelda Marcos in a Forgeline theme.

You need to sort that brake thing out first since caliper clearance plays a role in wheel choice. What size rotors are you trying to run? I think those Brembos were designed for a 13 or 14" rotor so you will probably need an 18" wheel to run them.

Are you tubbing your rear?

You should start a build thread.


Its funny that you mentioned his build, I stumbled upon his build yesterday. The dead pool camaro is for sure kick ass!! What does it take to get a cool name for your car is what I wanna know! I dont want to tub my car but I know I should, I just feel like I wont get the bang for my buck. Tubbing a car is very expensive. Yeah I have the stock rotors I think they are 13". If I can contact the guy from flynbye he suggested he could get slotted drilled rotors for the ss 2010 stuff that way I could use my stock hubs. Its a little frustrating because nobody seems to have competed this conversion yet so its hard to get info. I have seen them on a few cars like g bodys so I am sure I just need to remain patient. How do I do build thread Rob? Is my car even nice enough for that, I dont have a rendering or anything like that. Thanks for your help Rob, I will see what rims ron has available.
