Default Black Torq-Thrust2 rims???

I need a little help on finding these rims, I was looking on cardomain and came across a 98 ws6 with black torq-thrust 2 rims with polished lip, I believe those are the same rims on the GMMG blackbirds. I was also looking at Summit and saw the Torq-Thrust "D" rims which are dark gray with polished lip, dont know if these are the rims Im looking for, the biggest size I could find in summit on those "D" rims wjhere 15x8. Can anyone help me clear this up on these rims, and where I can find them.

Well, American Racing does not make black TT2's...only polished and painted (gray). The blacks you saw were custom made. And the Blackbird comes with AR 200S wheels, not TT2's.

You will have to powder coat a set if you want black, the black CCW's or black ZR1'S look cool as well.

I actually got a hook up on mine so they were free, but I have heard they charge around $15-20 a wheel. Not for sure. Pro Fab Racing powdercoated mine.-----> They are a sponsor here. Give them a call. They did a great job!
