New Wheels are On! BC Forged Inside...

Slate993tt · 06-25-2018, 08:15 PM

Just wanted to share a couple of pics of the new Wheels I had made for the ZLE. Big shout out to Paul and team at PK Auto Design...It was my second car in the past 3 months that Paul has helped me with outfitting new shoes for and once again expectations were exceeded. If you are in the market for wheels and want to deal with someone who has worked with a few ZLE's on making sure you get the perfect fit and excellent service and price Paul is the man.

These are BC Forged EH172 in Matte Bronze. Fit is perfect and they are 3lbs lighter per wheel than the factory wheels. I'll take that any day. They weighed in at 23.4 lbs for the rears and 23.5 Lbs for the fronts.

Wow! Absolute perfection man. Stunning!

Those are really sharp, Chad. Congrats!!

Great color!

Specs? Any spacers needed?

Ricco · 06-25-2018, 10:04 PM

What tires?

Larrio Andretti · 06-25-2018, 10:11 PM

I hope no spacers. They are custom wheels!

That Silver is sick.

Slate993tt · 06-25-2018, 11:00 PM

Thanks Guys. They look even better in person as these are just iPhone pics. No spacers at they were made to the exact backspacing JT of the original wheels with the same sizes. 19 x11’s and 19 x 12’s.

The tires are the stock Goodyear 3R’s

@Todd the 315 Pirellis Slicks seem to fit fine and clear the rear fenders no prob though I didn’t drive on them yet. Will do a test run in a few days prior to hitting the track again. But since Provoste is running them I really don’t see any issue.

Look great! I did matte bronze BC Forged wheels as well.

Thanks Chad, agreed. The 315's will work based on Provoste's experience. I'm going to hold on to the 315/705/19s and may use them down the road...but I'm going to try an 18" setup first. I'll send you a PM so as to not further derail this thread.

Keep showing off those sexy new wheels!

I'm in San Diego and plan on using PK Auto Design when I'm ready to make my wheels. Great looking setup!

Great choice. My experience with Paul has been excellent. If only all business owners had his dedication to the customer.
