Default Another Super Cool Forgeline Wheel and Tire Package

Here is another super cool Forgeline wheel and tire for another in house build we are doing. Just one cool wheel after another coming in for projects.

The car is a 67 Camaro, Black with a Red Bumble Bee Stripe. We wanted to get a little red detail in the package and had these tires redlined. The redline is a option now on our Prodigy Customs / Forgeline wheel and tire packages. I really like the way it blends a little old school and new school.

The owner of this car is a fan of Project Prodigy, and since his car is black and red...........................so the wheel is the exact same wheel, SP3P with diamond cut option and Chrome lip. A little smaller diameter then Project Prodigy, these are 18 x 8 and 18 X 12 and have 245/40/18 and 335/30/18 BFG KDW TA2 tires. The sidewalls of the tires are ground smooth of letters and the rubber is polished and the redline added.

We will have some pics of the car soon, the mini tubs and G Link are almost done, wheels are on the way.

We will get some pics of the finished car with the wheels / tires installed and also get some pics with this car and Project Prodigy together. Should be hot!

They remove the letters, designs on the sidewall, , polish the sidewall and cut in the redline, pretty trick stuff and looks perfect on this wheel

Wow...those wheels look really great.

Just curious, how much would modifying the sidewall like that cost? I really like the blend of new and old that wheel and tire combo has. I also would love to see come pics of them on the car (or my car, but my wallet can't afford that right now).

Cost of the redline depends on the tire and size, $400 to $600 additional? These cost me $400 more then KDWs without the treatment. Were doing the redlines for our dealer cost for our wheel and tire customers.
