Default New pics w/ new wheels (TT2 18s)

im gettin rid of my z06 motorsports and picked up a set of 18 in TT2s, powdercoated centers, 10.5 all the way around. the guy i got them from said these wheels came off nineball's hugger orange ss. i think its a HUGE improvement. once i put on some 69 style badges and get my hood repainted, ill be done with exterior mods. then, ill have some pofesinoal looking pics....










one thing....these things are scrubbing the fenders real bad and it doesnt look like rolling the inner lips will do anything, since the tires sit about a cm outside the fender. i put in a spring spacer but it only brought the rear up about a half inch and its still scrubbing under hard turning and uneven pavement. any other suggestions?

i may try to sell or trade the fronts for something more narrow, not too sure yet.

Looks ok if you like em...the wheel itself is awesome but sticks out to far for my taste.

i did that bc i wanted to do a gloss black rear panel and also have tinted tals and the line on the LT1 tails matches the body lines from the panel and the hatch perfect. some hate it, some love it.
