Wonder how they'd look paired up with some 17" Streetlites out back?

Also, what is the part number on the Weld rears that match, I have never seen them.

Don't let these guys bust your ***** too bad, there's nothing wrong with not painting a hood as soon as you buy it!
Thanks man! I'll look up the part number as soon as I get to work today. I'm not worried about the n00b and his "mis-matched wheel" comment. And the color of my hood wouldn't matter to him anyways, he'd never see the front half of the car anyways.

I like them, and so far everyone else does (except you) and I didn't build my car to impress anyone but myself. I like the look, it's different. It's clear to me you don't understand different. Nice TT2s. I liked them a lot, until my mom, grandma, and everyone else in the world all got them for their F-bodies. If you have nothing positive to contribute to my thread, I don't see a need for your commentary.

You really want to be different or GHETTO! There is a reason a lot of peolple have TT2s. You wouldn't understand, it would require class and taste. Anybody can go buy a 2 wheels and then different wheels. I used to do it all the time, or at least until I got a job! Maybe you can ask Obama for some stimulus so can get a set of wheels to match and paint your hood.

You down people on here all the time about wheels, and not everybody on your thread is digging the Giant front wheel. Me personally, I could give crap less about what wheels you run. But dont be ******* other people for there wheel choices. If you put the matching wheel on the front your car would look bad *** like the other camaros on here with those wheels. But it doesn't, it looks silly, just like the other Cars on here with different wheels on the front.

And when you post pics daily of your car, one would assume your looking for opinions. So for your next thread make sure and put only post if you like what you see, because im a six year old and I cant handle somebody else's opinion. Grow tfup!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks man! I love the R/T fronts too. The only reason I got the Alumastars was for the track, they are a little lighter than the R/T fronts, since those are a street design.

I had a nice reply to your resent response, but I deleted it. Brother its your car, I gave my opinion. You could drive the thing with 4 difeferent wheels if you want, I could give a **** less. I would tell you it looks stupid, if you posted pics of it. And if you don't care what I think, why the anger. Not everybody like's everything

These pics of it, the car looks great! Again just my opinion.

Did you have any problem with the fit and the rear disks?

Not a big choice of 15" that will fit '02 rear disk brakes.

Open to any suggestions.

Car looks Great!!!

I think most just don't want to hurt your feelings. You understand "different", other people understand "good looks".

Don't want anything but positive comments in your thread? Wow, there's an idea. Good luck with that. This is the internet, after all.

I do like the Alumastars though.
