We're working with Sparc Industries to design and manufacturing LokJaw’s custom wheels. Here’s why. Our ’66 Chevy C20 pickup will lay frame thanks to the Roadster Shop bagged chassis. But this presents a problem. We need special wheels that no one makes 8-lug wheels with our specs. The front wheels can’t exceed 8.5” wide if the guys intend to have any acceptable turning radius. And, the rear wheels must have the perfect offset or they’ll crash into the inside of the bed when it’s lowered. Back in 2012, Jonathan Peace, his father and brother, approached Gale Banks to build a twin-turbo engine for their Thunderbird. But this was no ordinary Thunderbird. The car won the coveted Ridler Award. There is no higher honor in the custom car industry. Judges pour over every nut and bolt. No detail is too small. When you’ve won the Ridler, your car is the best of the best. After graduating from the prestigious Art Center College of Design, Jonathan Peace opened Sparc Industries, offering custom steering and road wheels for high-end builds. Today, his line of billet aluminum steering wheels is priced affordably so anyone with a vintage vehicle can own one. Most recently, Jonathan began offering road wheel design and manufacturing services which is where this video begins.
