Default TT II's vs cragers

What is the difference between the cragers and the american racing TT II's. I dont see much of a difference. Is there a big difference in price between them or what?

From what I researched, Cragars will cost more. I do like them better than TT II though.

The first pic is a Cragar and the second in a TTII. The TTII's have a stepped lip and you can get them in 11" wide. I'm not sure how wide the cragars are, but you can get them in 17" or 18" diameter (18's are special order for the TTII).

Both look hot, but I lean toward the Torque Thrust.

Cragar come in 9" width so the widest tire you can put on them is a 275....TTII's come in 11" so you can get som 315's on the back....TTII's are polished so are harder to keep clean, the cragars are chrome so easier to keep clean. Also the cragars are actually less expensive, if you watch ebay you can pick up a set of new 17" chrome cragar SS wheels for $600-700, or a set of 18's for $700-$800

I like how both look but plan to go with the cragars just because its my daily driver and keeping the TTII's looking nice would be a every day task...

I like the torque thrusts better. I guess I just see the cragar as a cheaper version of the tt2's. I'd rather spend the money on the tt2's as I like the polished look better than the chrome. Not a big fan of chrome. I think polished looks real good when you keep them clean.
