Me too... And at normal prices. I wish there was an INVO in the right size 21.

These are the best I've seen yet. Love the color-matched paint and stepped lip. Just perfect.

We need to talk to Nitto and try and convince them the market is there for 21" sizes...Fear it is becoming the new "19in" rim....

Not just tires though, most wheel companies don't offer 21s either. It really is a bastard size, just like 19s were.

There are more on the way, but yes it is still an odd size. I know Pirelli just released a 375-25-21 I believe. While that isn't going to fit the Camaro without a little work, there are more 21" tires on the way.

I was pretty excited to see that Michelin released the Pilot Sport PS2 in 305/30/21.

Sad thing is, I actually talked to Tony about this very wheel combo last fall. I am saving for it. They beat me to it. What do you guys think of this wheel for an RJT?
I've had polished wheels before and they are a nightmare to maintain. I'll never do them again.

Those are nice, I wish they would make 21" more common.

Great thing about Forgeline....want to do a clear coat on it? Just let me know. Want it in chrome? No problem. Paint more your style, just give me a color or paint code.

Great thing about working with a customer wheel maker that actually does everything in house is that you can custom design and order your wheels to your liking.
