I actually picked mine up used from a friend of min for a pretty good deal. Not sure how much they are used. Most placed I've looked tell you to call...MTI has them in the silver technipolishfor 3,200 for 17x9.5 and 17x11 in back, than I think anodized black is $100 a wheel?. Mine are 17x9.5 all around....but I couldnt pass up this deal

I bought a set of TT2's and had the centers painted by a local body shop. They look killer in person, I had them painted with gunmetal grey with lots of mettalic flake in them.

So you bought the chrome ones I take it. Wouldn't it be cheaper to get the ones that are allready painted and then have them repainted? Just curious as to what the smartest way to go about this is. Thanks.

P.S. I'll be stopping in Rainbow City this Sunday on my way to Texas to check things out and drop a few things off. If you guys are available maybe we can all do lunch or something.

Yea, I'll be around. I'll PM you my cell phone number. I bought polished ones and had them painted. This was about two years ago and American Racing didn't offer a grey center on the 17x11 TT2's.. so I just bought me a set of polished ones and had them painted.

Btw.. if I had it to do over againg I"d powder coat them instead of painting them.
