They are the American Racing TTM's (antracite color) and I got them from Tomzwheels (tomzwheels.com). If you are also a member of LS1Tech they have em' on special for $569 for the (17x9 and 17x10.5) combo or $549 (for 17x9 all around). I have the staggered setup with 315 Nitto 555r's on the rear and love em.

wow, TONS better!!!

btw, what shocks/springs are you running and do you have any issues with rubbing/dragging/scraping, etc? The stance looks killer!

I've been running the "tried and true" Eibach setup (prokit) with koni sport shocks. I do have occasional issues with scraping on my exhaust ypipe, but opted to stick with Mids when I stroked the motor as the car is a little too low for LT's IMO. The new 315's don't rub a bit, but I went with the Nitto 555r's as they are a tad bit narrower and didn't have to worry about the fenders and I also have an adjustable panhard and this helps quite a bit as I had to move the axel over slightly to line up the new tires in the rear. Let me know if you have any more questions.

That looks amazing!

Are those konis adjustable? For a prokit that looks really low in the front. Sportline low if not even lower. Almost looks like you're tucking the front tire behind the fender a little.

Yup, they are the sport adj konis (just tweaked them when I put the new rims on) and the kit is a pro kit for sure. I've had the whole setup since 98ish so it's been on there a while. I love the stance as well and with this new setup it looks sweet!!!!

Wow, that looks like a different car now, the centerlines were cool as hell back in the day but they looked dated, the new wheels really freshen the car up. Looks great! If it doesnt rain we'll be at Ottos down in Sugar land this Saturday.
