I change my mind...I want TT2's....LOL

your car looks sweet with that stance!

was there a difference in fitment vs your old rims? Backspace and such? are the rim sizes the same vs your old? could you tell the extra 1/2" on the rears

John, the wheels are the same size other than the rears 17X10.5 vs 17x11... To me, the fitment is exactly the same. don't get me wrong... I liked the look of the TTM's... BUT, wanted the "polished" look... I don't mind spending time polishing... The chrome TTM's clean up with no effort at all.... and shine like new money.

Just out of curiousity, why switch from TTM's to TT2's...such a small difference. I have TT2's, so I am wondering what spurred the change.

Simply put.. I prefer the TT2's... I purchased the TTM's from a friend as an impulse buy... they were perfect and had maybe 500 miles on em at the time..

Why switch...? Because I can...
