Default My new wheels (pics)



I sold the Z06's to a member here. I already have 17X9 and 17X10.5 TTM's but I can't figure out which tires I want to go with. so this is the way my car sits right now. Also has open headers cause I traded the same guy TD's for my magnaflow.

Yes I did get the black TTM's
I haven't driven on them due to the fact that I have open headers for now and it would also be embarrassing. Also my friends who loaned me the spares said no burnouts. Well, maybe a small one once the TD's get here

I really want the SLP grill but I refuse to pay the price for one new..it's robbery.
I'll definitely will get pics once the wheels are on.
Maybe you guy s can help me out. I drive the car maybe 5k a year if I'm lucky. The car sits alot and the nitto DR's I had flat spotted bad. I'm on somewhat of a budget for tires so it's either sumitomos or nitto's. Which ones would you choose for a car that sits alot? I don't really care about great traction because my rear end will not last much longer. I've heard the sumitomo's are even more narrow than nitto's though. I just want a good looking wide tire.
