Chevelle needs updating too...

If I had to guess, I'd say contact Scott.

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

Front:

Rear:

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

Still rocking and rolling wheels out in about 4-5 weeks over here. Thanks again for all the support gentlemen, we appreciate greatly the support from our customers, and genuinely like getting to know and work with all of you!

Chris, you will be well taken care of, no worries, your wheels are already going to have the deepest wheel lip possible, since it is at MIN backspace, the pads won't make a difference in this case. The wheel center will be pushed all the way back towards the drop center of the wheel. That's a HUGE lip!

Thanks again!

Hi, Im new to this site. I like the look and stance of your 69. Looking to make mine sit the same way. If you dont mind me askin a couple questions, how much is your car lowered front and back, is it mini tubbed at all and what are you running for a front suspension ie, control arms, spindles and springs. I wanted to do 18s front and back and was wondering the max width and backspacing I could run. Yours looks perfect and since you say you have no rubbing, Id like to do the same. Thanks
