    ✋ hi Batman. I have a question. I was looking at some forgeline wheels but there’s not much of a selection in 17s. In your opinion do you think 18s would fit and look good.

    so Batman about a month back you said no way to 4 bs on the frt of my 67, did you mean it needed more? The reason I asked is I ordered 17/7 4.5 bs for the front from American Racing and they called today and said they think its to much. Any help is appreciated.

I can't seem to bring myself to shortcutting stuff.. Then I will do a clip and the 5.3 that I have.. The rest of the car will be somewhat stock... Thanks Travis

    I am helping a friend with a 66 nova that is having full Cbr front and cbr 4 link with dse tubs installed. Going off the specs from dse with axle length of 52.25" they recommend a 17x11 with 5.5" backspace. Do you know where I would be able to find a vendor to get custom backspace torque thrust. Also do you have a recommendation for the front size? Last question do have a recommendation for a shop to complete the installs of suspension and ls3 in the Bay Area or Central Valley? I appreciate all your help.

    Hell sir. I hope all is well out your way. I am ready to get me a new steering column. What column and trans linkage are you running in your 67, and were there any figment issues you had to overcome? Thanks again Batman, Derek

    Hello
    Since I know you have alot of wheel fitment experience I would like to know how offset figures in with a 4.75 backspace. If you have 25 mm positive offset does that effect the backspace or does it just add to the distance on the front of the rim. I am trying to order torque thrust 2 rims. So far I think 17 x 7 with 4.75 front and 17x7 with 5 or 5.5 bs to get 17 45 215 on front and 17 45 225 on my 63 thanks for the advice

    Batman,
    United Airlines was one of my accounts when I worked for Amp/TE. I called on the Chicago location. I am now an independent distributor for AMP/TE, Molex, Panduit, etc. I've been selling AMP/TE since 1977. My primary emphasis is trucking, railroad, and a little aviation. Small world.
