New Wheels!

What do you guys think?

The old ones are in the sig, I went smaller but I think it gives it a meaner look.
Comments welcome!

WAY better than the TTII's! I've always liked the look of a clean drag racing type wheel/tire setup on an older car.

All is well, thanks for asking. I have just been out of the scene for a while since I wasn't happy with how my car looked. Now that I repainted it, I'm in love all over again!

I think both wheel combos look good. It is nice to have a few different pairs of shoes to fit the occasion.

If "way better" you mean played the hell out, then I agree.

Every 3rd car at a meet/car show has TTs. Boring.
