tt2's would only be polished, so put yourself in my situation... considering the time it'll take to keep them clean etc.

Just an idea.....Get a wheel that DOESN'T come stock on a corvette. If you wanted do be like a vette might as well just go buy one.

My 2 cents

thanks for the input guys... and remember, these will only be 17's all around, staying away from 18's because of traction/tire prices

IMO get some tt2's, with 17x9 in the front and 17x11 in the rear. So that way you can stcik some fatty meats in the back!!

ok, but with that comes fitment problems, and the upkeep of polishing, which is what makes me think twice about tt2's
