Default torq thrust m shortage.

Been trying to track down 2 17x9 5x4.75 chrome ttm's with little to no luck. Everyone says they are on about a 1 month backorder. Looking for suggestions on maybe a website that I may have just overlooked.

There's still a shortage and no good answer for when they will make more.

yeah, i ordered black ttms with a polished lip, they called me up told me no go, all they had left was anthracite and a polished lip, so i grabbed them up, now it seems they are all on national back order, chrome, black, and anthracite.

I have a set of the anthracite that I would consider selling. 17/9.5 with 275 nitto 555s and 17/10.5 with 315 nitto 555rs. They have less than 3k miles and still look like new and the car is always stored inside. Rears aren't quite to the wear bars but the fronts are great.

I really appreciate the responses, I actually went ahead and sent an email to the manufacturer asking what the deal was with the nationwide shortage of ttm's and here is the response I received.

Hi, thanks for the e-mail. We had to make a new mold for that wheel, so it delayed production.

Unfortunately because of this, they will not be available until January.

Sorry for any headaches or hassles this may be causing you!

Unfortunately for myself I already have the rear 10.5 inch chrome ttm's and I am stuck with them. My concern is that they say January but who knows it could be much longer. My other thought was I have seen more 10.5's on sale in the chrome so I may jump on them and just do 10.5 all 4 corners.

That is actually where I ordered my other 2 from as well. Today I ordered 2 more in the chrome 17x10.5 to go up front. Now I am debating if I want 315/35/17 up front or maybe go 285/40/17 up front. Time to do some research.
