Im glad to annonce that Forgeline will make me a set of custom CenterLock/ no Lugs visable.wheel for the Impala....i still cant decide which? please give me opinion of best suited for our car...esp...mine...which is on air bags, 6 piston/16" rotor and alot Hp
which ones? 1...2..3....or if you know of any better ones offered by forgeline?
any of these forgelines can have this centerlock conversion...maybe more for loos in our car? but...it sure would be different and cool....and they say some of the wheels are actually lighter than the tire itself...now that would help with rolling mass...no?
Number 2 looks like the two-piece wheel they made 5 x5 for the Impala. I had them refurbish a set several years ago and they told me then they were transitioning to all three-piece wheels. That said they could probably build a three piece wheel with hidden hardware that would look very close to the picture. Another place to check is Fiske. the FM-5 looks great on our cars.
AllenIDOXLR8....wow...wealth of knowledge there...thnk you bud...in your Honest openion....do you think That #2 whee...in a 3 Piece...Staggered look....with Center lock...would look cool on our cars?
96ssbbb.....Budnick...drivers series...they look nice...but IM getting sponsored by Foregline...but they did say...they will make me any wheel i want...just a ruff sketch...or idea?
Allen...i looked into those Fiske...FM5...look great.camaro guys love them too....hidden hardware in a 3 piece...i will ask if forgeline can do same with me on wheel number two..
Stoney....thanks alot bud...means alot...by the way...did she laugh at my Impala...call us both Idiots for spending too much time and money on these stupid cars?
I worked with David Schardt directly at Foregline when I ordered mine back in 2011. 18 x 9.5 all round. They had to custom make me a low profile, raised center cap for the fronts to clear. This cap is now readily available from Foregline for those who need it.
I had a set of Fikse's on order at the time - but they were having a horrible time fulfilling customer orders and they were being slated on a number of forums. You might want to research them if you decide to go that route. They are not the same company they used to be. I eventually got my money back.
Good luck with what ever style of wheel you choose. I'm partial to the SO3's.
Roger.
