'08 C6 Wheels on any F-Body's yet?

http://www.lakeshorewheelandtire.com...ome-2008.shtml

I was wondering if anyone has seen any pics of the new C6 Replica wheels on any f-body's yet? Kinda curious as to what they'd look like...

Apparently no one has them yet. The new 5 spokes they have out look sweet. Good thread idea.

I'm not to big of a fan of them on the new Corvettes, and they are somewhat hideous in general think I was just wondering what it might look like on an f-body, so it's going to take a bold move on someone's part

These replicas just came out a couple of weeks ago, so I'm sure it will take awhile for people to notice they're available.

Not sure how they think they can fit a 19x11 wheel with a 64mm offset on a 4th Gen F-Body. That is an 8.5" backspace, or about 1/2" into the inner fender liners, and maybe even the LCA's.

Yeah, I was just going to get to that Injuneer...lol. I e-mailed lakeshore about that before I posted about this thread. A guy there told me that they were incorrect listings, and they have a couple more suitable sizes for the rear w/correct offsets.

They still haven't updated their web-page yet...

I don't like the wheels, either. Although that could change with seeing them on an F-Body.
