Default Vote on my new look!
Hey heres some pics of my car, i am about to drop it 2" and put some new rims on it but I just cant decide on what rims. Its getting a motor swap in a few months and will be 650+whp so traction is a minor concern but high speed stability and handling are foremost as I will just throw some prostars on when i go to the track, let me know what yall think. Im posting here because most ppl on the 3rd gen forums are either old school or just have no taste, thanks!

what about those 18 or 19 inch iroc wheels. I think they look good on a 3rd gen.

I personally like those wheels. Have you thought about getting the wheels widened? If space isnt an issue it go that route imo. Good luck either way!

Alot of TT2 responses, I know they look awesome but I see that alot and I was just think maybe something different would look good. I wanna get some pics with them photoshopped on and see how that looks, I was leaning towards the ZR1s but almost evryone is saying TT2s.

Got a pic or a link? I only want a 17" rim and im not trying to spend more than $1k on them, I think most of the z06 wheels are 18s arent they?

I think 3rd gens look sweet with them, I even have a set of them for my WS6



So I still vote Black/Polished lip ZR1
