I recently hooked up with John (NOT A TA) to help promote his new center caps for our wheels. My typing is terrible so here are some pics. http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0829.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0836.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0839.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0840.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0845.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0857.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0890.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0896.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0901.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee295/1969x11/DSC_0858.jpg

I'd like to know where you got the wheels with the negative offset ! I asked a local shop about some and they told me that I can't order the torque thrusts with that much dish.... Guess I need to find another shop !

Please PM me info ! Thanks !

I ordered the wheels with a reverse hoop and with the least amont of backspacing you could get them in which was like 3.75 on a 10'' rim I think. The local shop that ordered them for me did a set of 17x12's once for a customer, but naturally they had to be farmed out to get the hoops widened. My buddy that owns the local shop was good friends with Hoppy at American and could get about anything he wanted and fast , but Hoppy is no longer there.

Rad Capz is the name of the business and Wheel Nutz is the line of center caps seen on Kevins car in the pics above. I didn't announce the products or business here because I wasn't a sponsor. It's not fair to paying advertisers to have people come on and announce new products if they aren't sponsoring the site. Production started last year and the website for sales went online in June of this year. The center caps are available at www.radcapz.com

Kevin's been taking some pics for me of Wheel Nutz with custom logos engraved in the Aluminum caps and in plastic inserts which fit into certain caps so we can use pictures of his car for promotions.

I'd been looking for a 1st gen with a certain "look" to use for advertisements and saw Kevins car here on Lateral-G and it fit the requirements perfectly. We will be using pics of his car for online and print ads etc.

Right now I'm working on some SS emblems that fit into the Wheel Nutz caps that will have the right proportions for large diameter wheels. Our current SS style cap uses a stock emblem as an insert and looks nice with 17" or smaller wheels. The new SS insert will fit in the TA style cap so the SS logo can be larger.

Here's our TA cap on the TTIIs on my Firebird.

Our current SS style cap below accepts reproduction emblems.

Everybody likes production pics so I figured I'd show one. These caps have come out of the CNC machines but haven't been polished yet.

do you have any measurements for the bolt spacing for the cap? I have Vintage Wheel V45's, wondering if these would fit, the SS would look good on mine.

2 1/4" center to center, from one screw to the next.
