The camaro looks awesome. The camaro is being built for Rob, from the TV show "ROB & BIG". I was at "ALLSPEED" today and I saw them put the wheels on the camaro, and then set it on the ground. The camaro sits nice and low, everything clears. This is one of the nicest camaro's I have seen.:thumbsup: :bow:

I am with Mike about the wheels. I thought it was some sort of protective covering or something.
Can you give us a close-up pic of the wheels?

From what the body guy said, It is some sort of etching sealer primer.
witch is really thick...I guess he usees it as a filler coat to???

I am just glad I do not have to sand it

OK, settle down pal. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. The wheel choice is certainly polarizing and I'm sure Rob knows that as well as anyone.

It looks like he didnt narrow the rear end...do you think you could actually get me some basic specs, like width and the offsets/backspacing for those rear wheels? I would really appreciate it.
I just minitubbed my car, and didnt want to narrow the rear. I've been looking for some specs to work with...

68protouring454
10-18-2007, 11:48 AM
stock width rear with 12 inch wide rim will be 8-1/4 to 8-1/2 bs on a first gen, better to go deeper then shim out if need be

Vince@Meanstreets
10-18-2007, 11:51 AM
that rear has to be narrowed with that much dish.

ArisESQ
10-18-2007, 02:13 PM
that rear has to be narrowed with that much dish.

I have an 18x10 with 5.75 inches back spacing and I have close to that much or just as much lip on the rear wheels. Ill snap a pic for you later. I think its possible for it to have the stock axle width.

either way, I just minitubbed my car, so now I'm trying to figure out how much to wide/modify the wheels to get them to fit right.

The rear set up on this car is,

19 x 11 with 6" of bs.
housing is 57 1/2", rotor face to rotor face.
With DSE mini tubs. and the outer wheel house squared to the quarter for
travel clearance with the air ride.

On the 69's I have done they required a narrowed rear to get anything under 7" to fit right.

My 69 would need 8 3/8" to fit but it doesn't look right.

If you want I can narrow that rear end for you so your 5 3/4" will fit. Sorry, what year is your car?

Sorry for the highjack Andy but do you have a web site or build page we can peep? Love to see the fabrication work up close.

Also is this build going to be featured in season 3? Please tell Rob and BB to hop in and say hello. I promise we won't mob him too bad.

Ya, a slight change...Agin to the toy, all black makes a dull toy...so we and Rob decided to go ahead and spice it up a little. And give the toy and the Car some contrast. And it gives us (ASP and the Customer) a chance to go out side the lines a bit...:thumbsup:

Just the stripes are cleared. Same with the rims... the centers are cleared.. but the barrels are just satin. The contrast is SICK!!

Bulldog68
01-06-2008, 04:45 PM
Although I originally hoped the car would stay with the murdered out, all-black theme, I have to say I really like the red stripes with the black guns. They turned out nice.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure about those wheels in their current state. It could be because of the camera-phone quality pictures, but it looks almost like the all-red wheels overshadow the rest of the car's appearance. I'd like to see how the wheels would look with a pattern opposite that of the stripes... all black with red gun outlines throughout. And to tie in the theme even more, maybe a thin redline on the tires? Just some food for thought... either way, the car is simply awesome, so great work! :cheers:

phillym5
01-06-2008, 05:09 PM
Bulldog...
We went through so many different color combos with the wheels....:_paranoid
A couple looked real good. Black centers with red lips... All black with a red pinstripe on the outside of the lip...ect. All looked cool in their different respects. Rob likes it this way... so it stays.. for now. Also.. there needed to be some "flare" for the toy and magazine stuff. He is pretty good at changing things. I bet this car gets 3 different sets of wheels.:lol:

back in the shop for final assembly.
Here is a test run of the black guns in the wheels. We are still trying to decide to leave them red... or do them black....
IMO because the stripes are red with black guns, the wheels should match for consistency to the eye. Probably woulda looked better red outers with black centers... car goes from brutal red, to satin black, to the flattish black of a tire, the two off-match blacks are right near each other... woulda been less noticeable to run the red between the two blacks. Even shining the tires up with silicon spray or tire shine stuff won't quite get it there.

Not mine tho' so YMMV :cool: All red centers are too much tho'.

Rob owns a clothing company with Travis Barker called "Rogue Status".
The main logo is the gun print. Here is the myspace page.

That might not be a bad idea to have a few different sets of wheels for the car. Of course, once the toys are created to match and it graces the magazine pages, it will probably stay how it is for publicity reasons. I liked your other ideas for the wheels, but like you said, it's Rob's car and whatever makes him happy is how it should be.

What do you think about adding a redline tire to the current wheels? It would accent the red centers, while making a distinction between the black lip and the black tires. As it stands, I think the black of the tires and the outer wheel blend into each other, making the wheels look smaller than they are.

p.s. the RS badge looks good. I was surprised there wasn't a DC badge on there, but since this is for the Rogue Status brand, the double meaning badge is really cool. ;)


Bulldog...
We went through so many different color combos with the wheels....:_paranoid
A couple looked real good. Black centers with red lips... All black with a red pinstripe on the outside of the lip...ect. All looked cool in their different respects. Rob likes it this way... so it stays.. for now. Also.. there needed to be some "flare" for the toy and magazine stuff. He is pretty good at changing things. I bet this car gets 3 different sets of wheels.:lol:

Bulldog...

Problem with the DC logo is.... Rogue Status is a clothing company.. and so is DC. So it wouldn't really work.

The idea of the red lips seems cool until you see it in person. Part of the cars premis is to "pop" and to do a couple out of the box things. Rob says....." Its not about being part of the game... Its about changing it." He's talking about the fact that in his neck of the woods... color matched lips, and murdered out(all black, even flat) is common and starting to get played. There are only a couple cars pushing the limit of making parts of the car "pop".

He's thinking about doing a flat royal blue 67 Fastback for his next car...:_paranoid

i like the car sits nice in low...but i was wondering on how the air bar with the dse mini tubs worked out....and mods with where the air bar mounts...etc...


It really wasn't bad...The front lower corners on the tubs had to be notched
for the lower control arms to clear when lowered...And the spring perches moved in a little to allow the lower control arms to clear the 325's.
The floor had to be notched for the upper cross member that comes with the system...but that had nothing to do with the tubs...:thumbsup:

Well I finally got the tuning done....after some tweaking
she laid down 503@just over 4750...but it seemed to be spinning but was a little hard to tell...So I need to add some more fuel across the top,
made another hit and dang, went to 5000 and put down 521 and the tires were deffenitly spinning that time...afr looked great...cruises at 13.7 in vacume...threw low boost hangs in around 13.0 and in the meat of 10 to 14 psi solid 12.4 threw the top...looks good to me.

Now with that said, lets hit this thing, I have a 6k chip in, to be safe at the momment, so lets get there. after adding some wait and strapps, I hit it agin
straight to 6k, and mind you the pulls are only about 2.5 to 3 seconds long, pretty quick for this power level set up....at about 5200 the tires are begging me to stop, at 5600 you couldn't see behind the car they spinning so bad...
527@5400 rwhp with 463@4600 rwtrq.

Now I'm pleased with that, would have been nice to see the 550 plus on the screen but all thing considered...timing at 32 total, 91 octane, and a 35 profile tire @ 14 psi nonintercooled, spinning the frik out of the tires and not getting to 6500. should be in the ball park.You think?

Sooo...

The delivery went perfect. Rob was so stoked...words can't really describe it. The film crew had a tough time filming because they were drooling... Big was dumb founded.. Zues told Rob he needs to get his CCW to keep him from getting jacked... Drama was in awe... And Andy made the sickest entrance TV will ever see. Rob straight jumped off the street. [yikes]

Then Rob had no issues hopping in by himself and man handled the Camaro on his own as if he had been driving one all his life............................ untill he pushed the gas half way. :_paranoid As soon as the bypass valve shut and the boost hit... he backed off with the biggest grin you could ever see. He said the car is just constantly asking to be cut loose... and it takes all his heart and sole to keep it tame.

All in all he loves it... and it is his new daily driver. The Bently is now parked in the street and the Camaro get the roof. :captain:

I would tell you more.. like when his neighbor was tripping and all the car alarms that went off... ... but I can't ruin the story.

I stopped buy Robs Fantasy Factory and checked out the current state of the Rogue Status car. Its still in pretty good shape considering all the hell its been through..(Gumball, Bullrun, D1 drift event...) It has had a few issues.. like the trans had to get rebuilt, the airride is too finnicky, and the motor is just to powerful for him. So he leaves it at his factory. He plans on building a giant box (like a Hot Wheels) box and putting the Camaro in it. lol. Im telling him to send it back to me... we'll get rid of the air ride and trade out his motor for a stock LS7. I think he's going to do that... but in the meantime.. it still runs pretty good (I drove it today)... and the Satin paint has held up pretty good. (considering he never washes it)... what a prick...lol.

Both tires and lessons would help. It was cool that a real protouring car actually made it to the big screen and Rob was hyping up that it was cooler to build an old car than go out and buy a new Ferrari!

Did they ever say what the ET and MPH was? It looks like some better rubber would help the 60'. :D

Cool to see it on TV. :thumbsup:

Caught the episode dam looks good. That Ferrari should have been left back.

Rob need to practice. Maybe he will show it off more on the show.
