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.

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.
