Possible responses:
You are one.
Isn't that the purpose of the cap hex on the 91-92 RS/Z28 (or T/A crosslace cap) wheels?
It's not cost effective.
It won't look good.
Low-riders do it all the time w/ knockoff adapters.
You need a V8 before any of that.
You own a torque multiplier already, right?
I'm done.

It's not possible with the third gen hub and spindle design but with enough time and money, anything is possible.
You need to do a 0.8 second pitstop to change a flat?
