5th gen camaro #5439 18 inch wheel on 3rd gen? Anyone?

Does anyone have pics of these on a 3rd gen? I heard the guy who designed the IROC wheel designed these as a sort of IROC redesign on the 5th gen RS. My 92 RS has the red/machined 16 inch wheel now and I think these would look sick with the center insert on each spoke painted red.

Hope that was what you are looking for.
Those rims seems to require 1.75-2 inch spacers though.

On that same thread look at Post 333, 337, and 338. I painted the insides of them. No spacers on the back with a 4th Gen rear. I think I put a 1 in on the front with 4th gen front brakes.
