Default 99 T/A best wheels???

Which wheels would look the best on a dropped 99 T/A. The car will have ground effects Thanks.

I am a little bias but I think nothing looks better than powdercoated torque thrust IIs. You could go with HP Evos, HP 5 spokes. TSW Volcano or Thruxton. Fikse or IForge

I like ROH. some ROH RT's in black ice, or machined Snypers would look great IMO.

Anyone have pics of all these wheels on an 98+ WS6 T/A?

I just gashed the lip of my pass side rear WS6 rim today and am rather upset. Time to start looking for some replacements.

Aren't TT2s heavy? Anyone know the weights of all the wheels mentioned?

My TT IIs are pretty light. Compared to my 18 in Z06s they are like feathers

Hell it's been 3 months since I got it and it still isn't painted. I'm kinda digging the ricer look.

come to think of it... I agree.. it does look nice with the black gel coat.. The only time it sucks is under white light [ street lights ] ... esp on a black car like mine

I've had it for ummm .. 7 months now and still going strong on the gel coat

Roger does [or did .. since he isn't making these hoods anymore ] awesome work!!!

You're talking Z06 Replicas right? The weights I've seen listed for the OEM 18" Z06 wheels are around 21 pounds.

It is about 2-3" higher than the stock WS6 hood. I think it looks 100times more aggressive than the ws6 though. I wanted to get the Superhawk Hood from Roger but he wouldn't make me one.
