Steve Allgood's "Evil Twin" '68 Camaro on Forgeline GZ3 Wheels

[Forgeline Wheels]

Steve's gorgeous '68 Camaro is one of the almost-identical "Evil Twin" '68 Camaros originally used in the Need for Speed movie. It was built by Georgia's Kenwood Rod Shop, is powered by a 525HP LS3 crate engine, and rides on Heidt’s 4-link rear suspension, mini tubs, Wilwood disc brakes, Continental ExtremeContact DW tires (245/40ZR18 & 295/35ZR18), and 18x8/18x11.5 Forgeline GZ3 wheels finished with Gunmetal centers, Polished outers, and Exposed Hardware!

Really nice, was the rear end narrowed with this back spacing?

Really nice, was the rear end narrowed with this back spacing?

I don't actually know the axle width with any certainty. However, when I spoke with Randy Allgood about this car, he did not mention a shortened axle. And this rear wheel appears to have a relatively narrow outer rim, which would indicate a stock or nearly-stock axle width.

If they had shortened the axle much, then they would most likely be using less backspace and more frontspace - which would mean a much wider outer rim. So my expectation is that their extra width to accommodate that 11.5 inch rear wheel came from the minitub behind the hub.
