Default Chrome on white TA

I have a 25th Trans Am with the white wheels. I am tired of cleanig brake dust only to drive 50 miles and do it all over again. Anyways I am trying to get some pics of either highly polished alum or chrome wheels on a WHITE Trans Am. I have been looking at the Torque Thrust Ms. They look good but I like the deeper look of the TT2. Any pics of any chrome/high polished wheels would help.

Thanks

I recently installed ceramics on the front and it is still bad. Maybe it is because of the small LT1 brakes or possably because of the cross drilled rotors I am not sure. I am sure it is mostly because of me having white wheels and being too picky.

I have looked at Budnik Hammers, Fikse FM5, AR TT2, TTM and Rebels. I like chrome on white better than polished due to cleaning.

For those that have polished...Does Zoop seal keep the shine longer or is there another brand that holds the shine better?

WELL!!!! That just about answers any questions on how torque thrusts look on 25th anniversarys! Thank you much. The one thing I noticed about the tt2 vs ttm is the dish in the rim is a little different. I saw ttms on a sunset orange ws6 and I think I would like to try the to see if the 10.5 inch would fit on the front as well as the back.
