TT2's on Black LT1??
 
Anyone have pics of TT2's on a black LT1? Post them up if you know of some.

It's not an LT1, not my car anymore, and not the size torq thrusts that you are probaby wanting to see, but hey this is the best I could do :) It's a 95 3.4L V6 stock ride height 16x8" torq thrusts all the way around with custom offsets (have no idea what they were) with 245 GSC's on them.

thats also the only pic I have of that car with those rims on account of V6's having crappy soft springs and me putting 3 fat guys in the car and carving nice grooves out of my brand new GSC's backing out of a steep driveway sideways.

OHH they look MUCH MUCH better in 17's. I think on a black Z and under 1500 bucks you can't do better...jmho

Not really, lt1's look quite a bit different in the front.

haha getting impatient or what? Im finding replacement wheels as fast as i can man!

stevensLS1 Jul 11, 2006 09:08 PM

just get them. they are a very good looking wheel on any f-body car! esp. black car chrome wheels. oh and 17x11s with 315's are a must ;) :)

I do agree about the 17's looking much better although, that black car and those tires didn't do those 16's justice, I only got the 16's because I was 17 years old, broke and had 16" tires handy, although I did still get screwed on the price of the rims ($1100 with lugs mounted and balanced and that didn't include tires, I didn't research enough) Here are some better pics on a blue car, it's off topic but I feel like I have to try and defend those 16's :jest:

For some reason those 16" wheels look bigger on a blue car?

Heres Mine 17x9.5 fronts and 17x11 rears Chromed with a clear coat so no more polishing.

BEAUTIFUL car.......

BlackHawk T/A Jul 20, 2006 09:53 PM

Chromed with a clear coat? I didn't think you could do both, and why would you?

How much did it cost you to get them chromed?

In order to get the lifetime warranty on the finish i had to have the wheels clearcoated. Good thing about this clear coat is it's a liquid coating so it's not noticeable and keeps the chrome from peeling.

It cost $450 to do all the wheels, the manager at a local rim repair shop hooked me up in exchange for some auto repair work. The whole process took about 1 month. The sad part about it is im thinking about switching the face of the rim to black, my girlfriend who sees the car almost everyday mistaked my car for someone elses so i think it's time to switch it up appearance wise.

Thanks it needs the front bumper repainted from rock ruining the clear coat but other then that the paint is almost flawless.

I would leave the rims and do something else appearance wise to set you apart for the others!
