Really nice!  I'm usually not a fan of newer style wheels, but those are beautiful

Here is a quick and dirty lowering job.  Love the wheels.  Could you post the specs on them, please?  Those are the same ones I was thinking about doing on my new 86.

Thanks ffor the lowering job will see it lowered for real next two days. Throwing the suspension on tommorrow.
As for the wheels front Boss 338 18x8 3.75" backspace will need to run 1/4" spacer to clear grease cap all the way. rear 18x9.5 4.5" backspace. i will post some picks in a couple of days of the nearly finished product.

Did you get my message yesterday on the kick panels.  Rod Doors is hopefully getting the mold finalized.
