Default What wheel do you guys think for this car?

So I just picked this car up yesterday and am it NEEDS wheels badly lol. I think the Torque Thrust wheels will look great on it but dont know if I should go with the TTM Anthracite wheels or the TT2's? What do you guys think. I'm also open to other wheel suggestions but I'm partial to the Torque thrust design. I've always liked them.

Congrats on getting the car! Looks great! IMO i think you should get Chrome TTII's I think those look the best on SOM F-bodies!

TT2's, paint the spokes Grey, and leave the hoops chrome.

lol... actually guys, it's not SOM. It looks very similar in those pictures but it's actually Monterey Maroon Metallic. Regardless, I think I agree, the chrome TTII's would look best.

That's exactly what I had in mind. IMHO you can't do any better than that on an MMM car.

Wow, that GMHTP SS looks awesome. I'd say TT2's just like those. Who gives a **** if a lot of people have them, they're common because they look good on anything. They seem a lot more common on the internet than real life. If I had them on my car I'd be the only 4th gen f-body in my city with TT2's.

I agree. They're common because they look awesome. I don't ever see them in real life. Just on the internet.
