Default Torque Thrust IIs?

What's the best place to buy a full set of these now? Looking for 17x9.5 and 17x11 for the rears. I bought a set for my old car from TomZWheels which I guess is shut down since then. Is there still a good place to get a set of these with offset widths? Thanks.

You can try Discount tire.
Another one to consider is http://driverzinc.com/
Do a search on the internet for the best prices.
Good luck!

I'm in the market for a set of these also, seems kind of tough to find them in decent shape when buying them used

And the price of them brand new makes me want to just bite the bullet and buy a set of the cheaper polished ZR1's (same sizes but wheels and tires can be had for like $1.4k total).

Which sucks because I prefer the TT2 look way better Post back up if you find a good deal!

I too went ZR1's, but chromed and used ... had to drive to the next state over, but got a smokin' deal on them with 90% front tread and 70% rear tread on 555's.
