Default My new wheels TT2 Classics

I finally bought the wheels I've been wanting for sometime. American Racing Torq Thrust 2 Classics Fronts are 17x9.5 with 275/40/17 Hankooks and the Rears are 17x11 with 315/35/17 BFG drag radials.

Looks good. The rear could be lowered a little more.

Here's a link http://www.wheelsforless.com/vintage_wheels.aspx, it took a month and a half to get them something about being custom built. The tires were bought from discounttiredirect.com. And I think if you want black centers you have to have someone do it besides American Racing or do it yourself.

You take the rear isolator off of the top of the spring, and put a small piece of heater hose around the top of the spring. Lowers it a little under an inch in the back i think?
