Default Can I get this wheel combo...

Blackbird wheels...EXACT style...

http://www.gmmginc.net/html/blackbird.html#

But 18x9.5 and 18x11...in Nitto Drag radials 275 front, 315 rear...

Sponsors, how much? If possible...they must be custom because they aren't quite like any of the ones on the American Racing site.

Any info would be great, including how to fit these things...car will end up with a similar drop, 1-1.5".

Thanks.

Those do look good. Try these guys

They are not likely the ones used on the Blackbird but the prices are good.

Those may not be exactly Torq Thurst 2 wheels, but I know you can order TT2's in 18" sizes. Not sure if you can get them in 11" wide though.

Nineball has/had some on his hugger SS. Maybe you can shoot him a PM or he'll chime in. They look good no matter how you finish em (black, charcoal, polished etc).

TomZ wheels might be able to special order the custom 18" sizes. Let us know what you find out. I'm not in the market yet, but the 18 TT2 look better to me than the 17s as long as you can preserve the wide look in the rear.

On the topic though does anyone know exactly what color they are painted...any info would be awesome.

Maybe it's gunmetal metallic, like the color used on the bumper?
