Help on deciding wheels

I am torn between the TT2's and the C6 wheels for my Firebird Formula.

Does anyone have pics of a black Trans am with either one of these rims. I have searched and I found several of the TT2's but only one of the C6. And it was a Camaro. Any help would be appreciated.

I know the TT2s will look good, the C6 rims need more of a lip on them IMO

I would say TT2's definetly but I think the best would be TT2's painted black with the lip left chrome as well as the very center.

Oooo I think im gonna order a set of these in 18's from tom if he can hook me up with a good price.

I think these will look pretty tight on a black formula.

Should fit fine with a 295/35ZR18. With a 56 mm offse ton the rear if you have to massage in the iiner wheel well it ould be very minor.
