I don't think they'd look right, plus the offset is wrong for 4th gens.

I wouldnt do it. With a production wheel like that, i think, if it would look good someone would have done it and if they did youd find a million pictures of it.

Well it's not exactly what you were looking for but maybe for reference or to photoshop.





I had an 86 IROC that came with 2 sets of rims and I don't like stock salad shooters so decided to give this a try with the spare set, I painted the inserts black and polished the spokes.
