Talking Anthracite TTM's from TomZWheels are on...

Well, I have finally made my decision on what rims to get for my T/A. Took me a couples years but I finally found the ones that I liked. They are 17 x 9 on all four corners, wrapped in 275/40/17 BFG KDW.

Thanks TomZ for great service and product.

Very nice choice, they look hot with the silver car. For some reason I always thought the TTM's had a flat lip, not stepped. To me they look like TT2's at a killer price. I have been wondering what the Anthracite looked like on a silver car, very clean and making me like them more than ever.

The 17x10.5 TTM wheels do have a flat lip.

Looks incredible btw. The anthracite looks really good on the silver.

The KDW's are pretty good so far, gonna need some ET streets for the track, cause these just put up a smoke show from a dead stop. I haven't tried them in the rain yet to see how they handle.

Thanks guys for the compliments, this has been the hardest decision I've had to make on my car.

Great choice on the rims. The car looks awesome. How long did it take you to get them, cause the last time I called TomZ they said that the 17x9's were on back order.

Sorry man, forgot. I didn't do 10.5's cuz I wanted to be able to rotate the tires as needed, and I don't have any pics of the rear.

Yeah, they were on back order for awhile. TomZ just got a truck load in a week ago, and he posted a thread about a sale on them last Friday, so I ordered them up right away and got them within a week.

for me, from a dead stop, no they don't hook up well, just a big smoke show and black marks on the pavement. If your gonna use these at the track forget about it. From a roll I have had no problems, they hook up nicely.
Hopefully this helps alittle more.

They look great, but I would have gotten wider wheels in the back tho.
