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...

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.

And I didnt get butt hurt at all, just pointing out that we shouldnt care what other people do to their car. If you like it, then great. Wheels being "overdone" is a norm with a 10yr old car. And most of the other wheels that look good on our cars are either fikse, CCWs, Iforged etc etc OR they have bad sizes/offsets. I MF love FM5s, but being in college, I would hate leaving my car parked outside with that kind of $$ tied up in wheels. Just isnt practica. So a good looking, mass produced wheel is usually what people have to settle with.
On a side note, to the OP. I used to hate TTMs with a passion until I picked up a set from TomZ before they stopped selling them. I love the look. Sorry going to ***** out a couple pics of them on my lowered TA.
I def recommend lowering it, will make it look way better

well find me a set of wheels with 300 miles that look that great on my car for what i paid.... trust me you cant. My friend gave me a great deal because everyone told him they looked bad on his car. I honestly have seen very few fbodies in person with tt2s or ttms. But please tell me what kind of wheels you have? stock? everyone has stock though........
please note that in my original post i said those wheel dont do your car justice. i simply think there is a better wheel out there that would really set off your car.
How I bought my running, mechanically sound, '95 TA, 6spd coupe:

perhaps, it's a curse of my profession, but i belive in clean, simple design(s). design(s) that compliment, rather than 'offest' or compensate, if that makes any sense...
oh and before forget, here is a pic of the ROH RT wheel that I plan to put on the TA once it's done...

i will agree with you on that, but even those high dollar wheels simply do not appeal to me. they are "too busy" of a wheel, and i will never be able to justify dropping 2-3k for a set. i also understand the issue(s) of having an f-body while in college and the abuse that can happen to it...

Ya man I know what your saying, I also like clean/simple wheels. But I love wheels with a lip as well. Everyone has their own opinions.
By the way, I've seen those ROHs in person, def a bad *** wheel. I just wish they made them in a wider size
Good job on the progress with the TA
. Not a bad pick up for $1500
