You told me to "buy a honda" b/c I have a 7k rpm spinning (fast) LT1....
But yet you want to put 21's or 22's on a 4th gen? LOL

Re: 5th Gen Wheel Replicas
I doubt you'll see any. Judging by the pics, that wheel seems to have more of the older RWD offset, not the FWD offset that most newer cars use. This will no doubt disappear when the much narrower production car comes out, but either way, what it boils down to is that you can't reproduce that wheel with the shallow offset necessary to work on a 4th gen.
However... they sure would look sweet on a thirdgen.

21's and 22's on a 4th F-body would look pretty bad. As in NOT GOOD! That's too big for a 4th gen. The biggest that would look good on a 4th Gen are 19's and that's pushing it!!!
