well, better than stock, i will give you that. however, now you look like every other f-body out there with TT2's that are black w/a polished lip, so now it's just BORING, ho-hum, like no thought was put into choosing a set of wheels...

IMO, i would have continued to save for a better and different style of wheel to compliment your car. i don't think your new wheels do your car justice....

lord knows i won't be putting on TT2's on my '95 TA...

Looks good, the stock wheels on these cars are way too narrow. The 10.5s look way bigger in person, these pics dont really show that.

Since you think you know everything, those are actually TTMs.
Also, who cares if everyone ON HERE, has TT2s or TTMs? Everyone also has z06s, zr1s, etc etc. I can careless, these cars are 10ish years old. Damn near every wheel option is being massly produced/used. I've owned both TTMs and TT2s and have only seen few other cars in real life with TT2s or TTMs. And people have them because they look good and are priced reasonably. I can careless what everyone else is buying. If I like the wheel and I have the money, then I'm going to buy them for my car.

So do you think we should be buying wheels that people arent using as much? Even if they dont look as good?

I could care less if they are tt2's or ttm's. Point is they are tt style wheels.

Also, I know you have been through many styles of wheels. Many people have coined you a wheel ***** for going a different style every other month. That said it appears you like one style of wheel in variation. So whatever floats your boat. I mean you only create a new thread for every new set of rims you get. Proof one can't buy taste

Another thing, not saying go out and buy a style of wheel no one has, I'm saying use good taste, judgement. If you like having overused, overdone wheels on your car, I could carless. He asked for my opinion, I gave it. Sorry you got butt hurt and offended by my words.
