Which wheel?

Trying to decide between two different wheels, and I'm kinda stumped... These are the two I'm trying to decide between...
Torq Thrust M in anthricite...

or
Torq Thrust 2 painted charcoal metallic...

Personally, I like the 2nd wheel better, but it's almost radically more expensive... so it's a tough choice. I could get the TTMs for like $700-1000 less, but I think the TT2s look waaay better.

The second ones are sharp... Not sure if it's just the pictures, but it seems like there's more contrast and really stands out looking distinguished.
That's just my opinion but I'm sticking with it

I do agree that the 2nd wheel would look really kickass on my Formula.. and I'm kinda on the fence with the first one, although I'd have to say that in person they look REALLY nice also.
Second question would be... do I get the 17x11 for the rear and run 275's on them, or do I go with 17 x 9.5 all the way around? M/T doesn't make their drag radial in a 315 right now, so I'd have to run a 275 still.

17x9.5 all around if you're only running a 275 tire... it'd look real funny running a 275 tire on a wide 17x11 wheel.
As for the type, I really think the TTMs in anthricite would look sharp on your purple car.

Well I voted for the TTII. Cant really go wrong with the way they look and sure everyone has them.
The other wheels have a nice lip on the 17x11 but they kinda do look like they belong on a mustang
On a side note you will lose about .1 in the 1/4 with these wheels they are heavy, especially the 17x11

Well, the choice has been made, and I think I agree with the poll because that's what I ordered... Torq Thrust II, painted charcoal metallic... the Blackbird wheel. I went with 17x9.5" all the way around, should have them here in about 2-3 weeks.
I shopped around on having them painted myself, and it would have ended up costing me just as much as buying them from some place like Tom Henry, so I just saved myself the runaround and hassle and bought them from Tom Henry.
