Default Pics of your SOM T/A with aftermarket wheels?

Hey all... I am trying to decide which rims I am going to put on the car this spring. Right now I have the factory speedlines. I was thinking along the lines of the Chrome Z06, or maybe TT2's? But I still have no idea which ones I really want. Open to all pics of SOM cars with ANY kind of aftermarket wheels. Thanks everyone.

Have your priced tires lately? Lol especially if you are going to run a decent drag radial on the back.

Just something to keep in mind.

Yeah I just put a set of BFG Eagle F1 A/S on my STi. They were around a thousand dollars from appalachian tire... could have gotten them much cheaper from tirerack but was in a hurry at the time.

I am planning on getting the rims I really want first, and then the tires later... I hate that it's going to be a slow process but you gotta start somewhere right?

You can get the RPMs ^^^ with tires (depending on what you want) for under 1,200$ shipped to your door. Mounted/balanced/lugs/etc..

DD C5's. I think Hollo's SOM WS6 is the best looking WS6 I've seen.

No Juice - where do you live? You might wake up to find your car on cinder blocks! LOL j/k. In all seriousness though those are some of the best looking wheels I have EVER seen on a SOM car. I wish they were still available. If you ever want to sell them or know of someone who does please let me know!

I also really like those wheels on Shane's car alot. No b.s. those look amazing. I really like the color match.

Now you guys really have "the wheels turning" lol. I'm actually thinking now that the TTII's are the farthest down on my list.

The C6 Z06 DD from OEWheels are very close to the Ruff's. Try looking there

I work with the guy that owns that car you are talking about. He just bought that car last week and I think he mentioned maybe selling those wheels to get something different.
