Both our centers and our outers are made of 6061 aluminum unlike most 3pc rim shells that are made of 5000 series aluminum. There is now a wide array of diameters and widths that fit 98% of the tires available for performance vehicles.
Speaking of hardware would you build a race car chassis by bolting it together or wouldn’t you just trust the strength of welding? Sizes and offsets. 2pc wheels in most cases can be made lighter due to the lack of hardware. 2pc wheels are pound for pound stronger and outperform 3pc wheels in cornering and radial fatigue tests. Contrary to some of the information that is being thrown around out there about 3pc wheels being better than 2pc, 2pc welded construction wheels are far superior to 3pc wheels for a number of reasons. If your looking for the ultimate performance wheel set up look no further. Shown above are a pair of brushed center polished outer PT-01 in 19×8 and 20×12.

Auctioned via eBay in October, the Foose Commodore rendering sold for $1,751, while the XR8 Sprint drawing sold for an impressive $2,700.We have been catering to the Pro-Touring market long before that term for the latest automotive segment even existed. Acknowledging the end of Australian car manufacturing, the one-off renderings were generously donated by Foose to raise funds for ‘Feel the Magic’, a not-for-profit organisation that runs Australia’s leading grief education and support programs for children. While at the Gosford Classic Car Museum, Foose also unveiled drawings he did of two modern Aussie muscle cars: a Ford FG X Falcon XR8 and Holden VFII Commodore SS, each of which featured Foose custom touches. The Foose Camaro bid strongly and while it failed to meet its reserve, the car continued to show interest afterwards. Launched in 2005 with plans for a run of 500, only a handful of Foose Camaros were completed before the venture folded.ĭescribed as the only one in Australia, the Foose Camaro carried a $300,000 reserve guide when it was consigned through Pickles Auctions as part of a special sale of more than 70 of the museum’s cars, including Ferraris, Rolls-Royces and Lamborghinis on 28 October.
