This Chevrolet C-10 on Forgeline CF3C Concave wheels that Roadster Shop built for Craftsman Tools is perhaps the fastest and most beautiful pro-touring truck that we have ever seen. See more at: http://www.forgeline.com/customer_gallery_view.php?cvk=959

What finish is that? satin gunmetal and black hoops?

I like!

Almost. The centers are Titanium (which is a matte gunmetal) and the outers are Gloss Black.

Was hoping that was the case. I'm looking at titanium and brushed outers. Torn on CF3C and GA3...

Great choice. Here is that combination on a RB3C-SL (shown in the shallow concave profile option on the front of a CTS-V):

Torn on CF3C and GA3...

Both are great wheels. Both are very strong and will tolerate as much abuse as you can throw at them.

The CF3C has the very cool concave profile and that modern chamfered rim register.
The GA3 is a bit lighter and less expensive, holding all else constant.

You can't go wrong with either one. Just a matter of personal preference.

I've got the GA3 in Titanium on a 69 and love them.

Thanks for the info and pictures Mark. I have been looking at Forgeline exclusively for wheels as right now your company has it all. Great quality wheel, good build time and great design selection. I've been working with Tony Whatley on spec'ing and eventually purchasing these wheels.

Mototime, I've used yours as an example as well when considering the titanium wheel center. Love it.

Thanks! We try.

Build times had crept up a bit last month, because IMSA was very late finalizing rules for the 2014 United SportsCar season. And as a result, we had all of the race teams place huge orders at the last minute for wheels that they needed to have by this week. It was crazy.

But the 2014 season has officially started now. Daytona 24 qualifying is literally taking place right now at this moment. So the pre-Daytona rush is finally over. Three piece wheels should be back in the 3-4 week ballpark - at least until the spring rush starts.

Great! Tony at DV8 Motoring is awesome, and he knows his stuff. I'm sure that he will take good care of you.

Excellent sounds good. He had quoted me a little longer. I'm offshore right now so I'm ok with the timeframe I've been hearing.

I'm sure Tony will. He's a close personal friend of mine and see him on a regular basis. Been talking wheels with him for this project for a WHILE.
