Default DriverzInc: Pics of New Gen Lite on my 69 Camaro

Finally got the new New Gen Lite wheels mounted up with a new set of Wilwood W6A and W4A brakes. Wheels are 19x8 and 19x10's with a 245/35/19 and 275/40/19 rear. Before everyone all worked up, the 4" cowl hood is on its way out.

They are available in 15-22's, in soft lip or step lip. They are custom built.

We are finalizing the cap. It will be a flat cap, to match the race like design. I don't mind the way they look without a cap though either.

Forgive me if this is a stupid question. When you say flat cap do you mean a smooth cap like a forgeline/kinesis or a raised flat cap more like a rushforth, or something completely different? Is the cap in "fat bottom camaro"'s rendering similar to what your coming up with?
You guy really nailed it with this design

Very valid question. We are working with New Gen to develop a cap similar to something you would see on a Forgeline or Kinesis wheel. A domed cap just does not look right on the wheel.

The rear is not narrowed. The rear wheel is a 19x10 with just about a factory rear back space.
