UNDER THE HOOD: Latest News From Project Big Red
February 9th-17th, 2023: In an effort to move the front wheels in deeper, we extinguished all possibilities. The wheel company did not offer a back spacing that would work with our application, nor were they willing to help us at all! We then searched for who made the best low drag hubs for the 4th gen Camaro. All of our research led us to Aerospace Components. Not only do they make hubs that will fit a stock 4th gen, they were WILLING to make us a custom set that brought the wheel in where we wanted it. All while still making it work with our existing Aerospace Components front brakes. After a ton of precise measurements and numerous back and forth emails with their engineering department, they felt comfortable making this custom piece work for us. I could not be any happier with the finished product and with the exceptional customer service that Aerospace Components demonstrated throughout the entire process. They are truly a class act!
