Wink One more little detail...

Jon had my rear pads shaved just a bit to afford me a little bit more clearance.Notice how the rear edges of the spokes meet the edge of the pads in the fronts vs the rears as well as how much further the centercap is sunk in on front vs the rear...front b/s is 4.875",rears are a custom-made 5.625"

Front:


Rear:


I tell ya...that Jon Henson is one sharp cookie.

Thanks John! You really flatter me....

We are VERY happy that you received the wheels in good form, and that you are excited about putting them on your very nice camaro. That car is going to be transformed by the new wheels. Looking forward to seeing them all bolted on!

I will unfortunately be gone until Next Tuesday due to a death in the family. We will be up in Sacramento until Monday night. If anything comes up, you can try my cell phone.

Thanks again for running our wheels, and we are pleased to be of service.

Jon,
I want to get the deepest rear lip as possible.
How do I get this treatment on my rear wheel to ensure I achieve MAX lip size?

Thanks,
Chris

Best way is to contact Jon @ www.driverzinc.com and let him take care of those details for you...he's the expert here.
