Best looking wheels

What do you guys think are the best looking wheels on a bluish green LT1 Trans Am? I like the Torque Thrust IIs, Chrome ZR1s, Chrome C5s, and the WS6s. If you like a different wheel tell me which one.

probably the TT2's or the 02 WS6 wheels. I am either going with 18" Boyd Coddington Smoothie 2's or a set of 02 WS6 wheels.

I voted for other, my wheel of choice would be a set of HREs Of the for choices you posted though I would get the Y2K+ C5 wheels because you see the WS6 wheels on tons of T/As and they look too stock for my taste, but then I am a little extreme.

The new Cragar S/S wheels that are being put on some of the 02 GMMG ZL1's are my favorite wheels and prob the only ones I'd get if I ever got new rims. Maybe ZO6 for a second choice.

Those are real nice wheels, but they price tag is alittle high for my budget.

those are basically the same thing as the TTIIs. Probably a lot more expensive too since Boyds name is on them.

actually, I think you can getter a cheaper price on the Smoothies than the TT2's, but don't take my word for it.

CRAGARS BABY! AR copied them and yallz know it. Actually Weld makes the Cragar S/S's now and they are an alloy so they are a bit lighter than Cragar's wheels

if price wasn't an option, than HRE or Fikse, maybe even Forgeline....a set of Forgeline's look pretty good on certain f-bodies.

BUT, since there is a budget....eh, all those listed are basically at the same level of appeal looks-wise, and i've seen multiple f-bodies with each of those wheels on 'em....so i'm kinda indifferent.
