Maroon Metallic With TT2s, How Does It Look?

I am looking at getting a set of Torque Thrust II wheels for the car. I was wondering how they would look on a Maroon Metallic car?

I like My Fikse FM5's byut I figure I could pocket about $1,000 If I sell them and get the TT2s. That gets me closer to the STS Turbo setup I am look at getting ASAP.

Your thoughts?

TT2's are played out... Yes they look good on just about any car, but come time for the woodward cruise you're gonna see too many of them around.

Keep the Fikse's..

ok yes there is a few f-bodies with TT2's out there but i dont see that many most of the people are running 17's or smaller is see which look not too good. im running 18's think it looks great on black car would like to run a 19 or 20 on back just because the rear wheels look smaller than the fronts just how the body line works. it just deponds on who you are everbody love the wheels on my car. I hate camaros with crome bling bling rims or even crome not my style give me a polish or even better black center with polished lip that looks hot on anything given the right side of wheel compared to car

LOL, I mean that I could get like $1900+ (These were $3,200 new) for the Fikses, buy a set of TT2s for about $900 and pocket about $1,000 for more power

Or, I could trade for a nice set of 17" rims + Cash.

Thanks,

Bill

hmmm heres something for you to think about get a 17x11 rear rim with the correct back spacing and put a 335/35/17 hoozier tire on like i did they look tuff and there 12.4 wide and yes i did have to notch the frame rails but he only charged $500 and did a excellent job.

I like TT2's much better on 93-97 Camaros than 98+.

My favorite 98+ rims are Z06 replicas; C5 Z06 wheels look sweet, but C6 Z06 looks even better. Not too many of the latter rolling around yet.

It would be nice to be able to keep the Fikse's and still get the STS turbo. What would you do if you could keep the Fikse's and no STS Turbo this year. Or, get TT2s and get the STS Turbo sometime around June?

Tough Question....... Look Good or Look Decent and run solid mid 11's all day long?



Thanks, Bill

Bill your car is built for the STS turbo.. The only way its going to be happy is with a STS Turbo

Trust me the Fikse's are awsome.
