Torq-Thrust 2.1 HELP! Okay so here is my delima... I bought a set of tt2's off a member on the site (still awaiting to get them) but I may have wanted to do a little better homework on these. Here is my questions.
The ones I bought from the member are the ones found on Tire Rack (American Racing Authentic Hot Rod Torq-Thrust 2.1) 17x9.5 - 1 peice cast Which is what I want to run in the front, but I was talking with the guys at ws6store about there tt2's and they said they have never herd of 2.1's and they sell a 2 peice rim. So there is where my delima is, I want to run 17x11 in the rear but dont know if i just screwed my self buying these rims because I want them to look the same. Has anyone else ran into this problem? do they make a 17x11 1-piece cast?
Anyhelp is much appreicated!

I do know that the 2.1 is the newer version of the original TT2.
also, I do believe someone already asked about the difference between the tt2 and the new 2.1's

TT2.1 = Chinese made casting. I believe the TT2 are forged aluminum, and are made in the states. They both look the same, but are made differently. I wouldn't be worried about having a set of mixed 2.1/2 as long as they were balanced out correctly.
