Yes. 18x9 and 18x10's or 18.9.5 and 18x10.5's. How much would they cost with tires? I need a package deal, no luck finding anything, pisses me off.

I like them both equally, but the extra money for the Smoothie's makes me say TT2.

Because Image is the main reason wheels are bought. Unless you are performance modding to light the streets on fire. Just my opinion

After about 2 years of trying to figure out which rims to go with TTII has the look I wanted. Just put them on yesterday with the BFG KD's (315's) Definitely alot more muscular than the Sleek SII. I also think the TTII's look better on certain color cars. Definatley need to lower the car. I even got a compliment while at 7-11, Honda guy walks up to me and says "Trans Am, damn that thing is SICK". 11's out back ballance the cars big butt.

P.S After watching American Hot rod "I will never purchase anything from Boyd". He doesnt treat his employees correctly and the one jack *** that runs the shop what a dumb ****. Poor craftsman ship poor customer service no leadership skills. Ok, im done pissin!

Mind sharing what size those are? They are hot for sure. They have more of a lip than i've seen in other pics.

Smoothie Douces came in yesterday. Got them on last night... Didn't think they would look that good but Damnnnnnn they look bad azzzz. Apparently all of Pensacola think they look good also.. Everywhere I go, heads turn 8-) I'll post pictures once I put the slotted cross drills on.
