Default Got my TTM Anthracite & Nittos on today

What do you think about the choice I went with?
I wanted the Blackbird look, but didn't want to spend $300 more to have TTII's powdercoated.
My new WS9 hood with silver blackbird stripes is awaiting it's paint.

Looks good bro! My TTM in Anthracite should be on the way in the next week or so. I can't wait to get those 17X11's to fill out the rear wheel wells.

I am really starting to like these wheels as well..

I think they would look sweet on a White T/A..

I can't decide though.. Anthracite or Black...

I want to get TTM's for my 02 WS6 with stock suspension. Did you go with 17x9 (44 offset), 275-40-17 up front with 17x10.5 (44 offset) 315-35-17 in the rear? If so, any tire or wheel rubbing at all? Do the aftermarket shocks make the car sit higher or about the same as stock? I just don't want to make any mods to make them fit right. Thanks.

yes, I went with the 17x9 & 17x10.5 wheels. The tires up front are 245's I think, not 275's. The backs are 315-35's. It seems to sit a centimeter lower than stock with the aftermarket shocks, I would say no more than 0.25"... barely noticeable. I haven't noticed any rubbing yet...
