Default Help me pick wheels for my MRM Trans Am !!

Well I figured while the hood is in getting painted I could try and decide what wheels I will be going with. I narrowed it down to three. They are.

TT IIs polished



Well think of these as TT IIs as I don't like the 200s Painted gunmetal.



My car





What do you guys think? It is NOT my daily driver if I drive it to work it is like 15 miles round trip. Looking forward to some opinions.

Thanks

Bob S.

Polished would look great, but I'm going to say that you should change it up a bit and go for the charcoal-centered TTII's. They simply look so menacing and bring a whole new style to the normally played out TTII look. It seemingly changes the whole wheel when they're done like that and it looks amazing. Plus, using charcoal-centered ones opens up plenty of new possible things you could do, using the charcoal/gunmetal as an accent color on your car (blackbird stripes, CETA bumper, front bird, Trans Am lettering on the sides, etc).

Personally, I think you should buy my American Racing Rebel's LOL, but otherwise, the TTII polished.

I was thinking gunmetal also to use as an accent. I right now have polished "pontiac" and "Trans am" lettering.

Bogarts!

But the painted TT2 would be less to polish to maintain.

save your money, get your hood painted, then get some pro-stars with a fat *** tire on the back and put some lowering springs on and it would look so bad ***....
