i like the Y2K rims. they are clean and smooth looking. you cant go wrong with any of these rims. if nothing else, the TT2 rims. there is a reason they are popular. they are bad ***

Voted for the Smoothies. However, i like Timeless wheels alot more. Those may be my next set.

Just remember to think outside the box full of cookie-cutter wheels.

I'm weird in that I don't like the Z06 rims.

However, even though I love ZR1's (I'm getting some), I DONT like them on Firebirds. Seems wrong to have SS wheels on a Firebird or Firebird wheels on a Camaro to me. Just my opinion.

If it were my car, I'd have the Y2K rims (Don't ask me why I don't mind Vette rims on an F-Body! ).

Everyone knows Boyd is a ********. I would never buy anything that came from that place. Go with the Z06's.

TTII's are way overrated IMO. they look good, but not crazy good. the boyds are BEAUTIFUL, I love those wheels. the Y2ks are good, but not great. I actually saw a pewter t/a with c6 motorsports somewhere on the internet, and they looked really good. i dont think theyd be good on anything but silver or pewter though. another rim i would recommend you check out are HP Evos. they are one of my favorite rims on trans ams.

I Would Go With The First Set. The Z06 Wheels Are Way To Overused.

Why don't you look at the timeless 2's from boyd coddington. I have them, as you can see, and not too many other people do. I'm always getting compliments on them.
