Hi-Tech or 20 slot wheel alternative

I came across these wheels accidentally while perusing the interwebz. Looks like these would be a great 'stockish' updated replacement wheel......IF ONLY they made it in a 17 or 18". Who knows, maybe they would?? Can somebody photoshop these onto a nice Formy or 85-89 T/a?

They are Artis 'Southside"
Now, if a while down the road.......Hawks or somebody starts offering this wheel.....I expect my kickback check in the mail!

They do have a Pontiac-ish look to them, don't they.

Kind of a mix of the 20 slots & the 4th gen salad shooters

Sad news.......I e-mailed them and they said they have no way to make them in 17" or 18". I guess that would mean they don't actually make their own wheels.
