Yea the factory ones on the crate 350 developed a small crack on the side.....I was planning ahead with these gonna stick em on there for a while till I get my 383 finished then transfer em over to the new motor...The black ones are bad ass too GM Performance has some nice stuff...

Re: Stocker to Rocker (touch up build)

The new wheels look killer!

What are the specs on the tires? And what BS did you get on the front/rear wheels?

Thanks ......I do like the tires and wheels.....the size are
Rear 20 X 10 / BS 5.50 Toyo proxies II 295/40/20
Front 20 x 8.5 / BS 5.25 Toyo proxies II 255/40/20

This leaves plenty of clearance in case I decide to mildly bag it....

That's what I thought on the tires... I've been running the same setup since 2010 and love them.

Nice colors if you make some extra'z just send them on over! I bet a Miller Lite would fit just fine...
