Default Rushforths on a GTO

Here's a killer GTO built by some good friends and wrapping it up just in time for the Good Guys Puyallup show here in Western, WA

It's awesome to have my wheels on my friend's cars and even more so when they look like this!

19x8 and 20x10 Whiplashes with Smoked Titanium on the entire wheel fill up the wheelwells nicely and set off the charcoal and white perfect!

Wow Jason, those wheels look killer on that car. The entire wheel in the smoked titanium is great! Of course the car is pretty damn nice too.

That's a stock width rearend so it's only about a 4-4.5" lip, Ned. If you're going with 12s and haven't narrowed the rearend yet, just center the wheel and it will look killer. Not pro street deep but a nice wide lip that will look aggressive.

Trust me! I'm a designer and a wheel man!
