Default Opinions please from Tech minds....

I am very Torn on what I want to do with my car if anything. I have tried a couple of different set ups and like dthem all, Currently sitting slammed with a nice rake on Drag lites but have been pondering going back with a set of 18's or 19's. Give your thought's.

Current set up




17's



And the 18's



Like I said I have liked all of them just kinda ready for something different, but do the big wheels look better or the big wheels. I have been thinking about maybe just switching to Pro Stars.

I REALLY like these tup you have on it now. Looks mean...if I saw you at a light I'd think you were a ten second car.

I'm not a big fan of the Z06's, although the size looks good.

Same with the 18's...that's not my favorite wheel style, but the size looks good. I wouldn't go any bigger though.

I just really like the look of the current setup. It's different...everyone has the big wheels, but not alot of people are running smaller ones these days, and it makes the car look so purposeful, like it could pull the front wheels if it wanted to.

Well the drag tires you have look very good.

Z06 wheels look much better than the TT2s on there. Keep them on.

Your current set up looks great to me plus you don't see it everwhere. I would stick. TTII's look great too and that's why you do see'em everywhere.
