The rears are an 18 X 12 with a 5.5 BS and the fronts are 18 X 11 with a 6.125 BS if I remember it correctly.

Love my Forgelines and will have them on every build I do.

Thanks Finch. Rears are almost the same as I'd be running (I'd have 1/4" more BS. Fronts are a little wide.

I like those on your car a LOT!

Super Chevy pits Brian's '71 Camaro against the new Z/28 at Barber Motorsports Park. You'll have to read the article to see who was faster. http://www.superchevy.com/features/c...28_track_test/

Of all of the different variations of Brian's Camaro, the white paint with the black concave wheels is by far my favorite. That look is killer.

To fit the same setup on 19x12 would 5.5 also work? Most people seem to run a 7" BS... I do have ridetech 4link and dse tubs.

Thanks

If your running stock rear width that will not work. You would need to narrow I'm guessing about 2" per side to get it at 5.5 BS. I have stock width rear and have 19x10 with 5.5 BS and it's tight. I think you would need about 7-7.5" BS with stock rear. Hopefully someone with more experience chimes in.

I think that would still put u at about 1" under the fender and out. U would rub like crazy. With an 11" rim yes but 12" I don't see that happening. If ur looking for a lot of lip. Just for reference I have about 3.5" of lip now. So not too bad. Other than that u will need to narrow the rear.
