Thanks guys, the pictures are from my droid so the quality is not the greatest. The braking power is amazing and the tires grip is indescribable. I will try to get some better pics up soon.

Damn baller! Car looks great. I drove a GT3 with Michelin PS2's on it, awesome tires. What are the specs on the wheels?

very very nice. I think I might get that same setup for my silver TA.
I know they are light, do you know what each wheel weighs?

The rims are 18x9.5" & 18x10.5" center and lip in chrome wt.32lbs & 34lbs. When I had them balanced there were two wheels that required no weights. The other two need very little to be balanced.

You will not be dissappointed. I know the consensus on here is rivets are rice and so on but the rims are of absolute quality.

I like the brakes, but not a fan of those wheels. Just not a fan of chrome or multi-spoke wheels. But, as always, whatever makes you happy.

they look sweet but imo with killer brakes like that
you are running too many spokes and it distracts and takes away from the beauty of them bad *** calipers

here is mine with baer 6 pots running 18" custom Kinesis wheels

ps anyone liking my brakes or wheels I am selling
them to step up to something even crazier

That looks really good... I had the original chrome zr1's so I kind of wanted something different than the 5 spoke look. But the Trailblazer will be getting a set of true forged five or six spoke design with c6 zo6 brakes
