Default Pics of my painted TT2's

Check them out and let me know what you think. The fronts are 17 x 9's and the rears are 17 x 11's. It was a pita to have them painted and clearcoated.. but I have had some great compliments on them. Go to the link below and there are pics of the car when I had ZR1's on it and then an album with the new wheels.

did you have the rims powder coated?
i hate how our cars come from the factory with that 4x4 look, i was thinking of lowering mine in the near future,
what about yours? i think it will look perfect when lowered,

Looks awesome! I bet they are easier to keep clean now. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> However it does sit up pretty high. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Cool! What's the offset on the rear wheels? I think I want those for my car but with black centers. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Beautiful, that's exactly what I plan to do with mine. <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> What color did you use, did you have a regular body shop paint them?

I was going to wait and buy a set of springs for myself for Christmas... but I guess I'll go ahead and do it now.. U guys have kinda talked me into it! I had them painted at a body shop that does custom paint on bikes. I let the paint guy pick the exact color out, I just told him about what I wanted. If I had it to do over again.. I'd have them powder coated, the clear coat on the lips of two of the wheels have gotten some chips from rocks.. but the spokes look awesome!

Anyone know who has the best prices on the polished American Racing TT2s? Preferable a sponsor if possible.

Thanks.
