You can buy a set of all 3 of the other ones for what the CCWs will cost you...plus they are polished, not chromed (I dont think the TTs are chrome either but I am not sure...I never cared enough for them to even look twice at buying a set.) If you drive your car daily...or really much at all dont get them because they are a PIA the *** to keep clean and looking 100%. My orange car only leaves the garage to go on the trailer to go to shows and I still spend a couple hours the night before polishing them.

After you get them you can have them chromed for about $2K more though.

On the other hand they are the best looking F-body rims you can buy IMO!

I think you should also consider chrome Y2Ks...to me they are the best looking choice for a Firebird of all the Vette rims.

Any reason you arent considering Torque Thrust Ms?I would say Chrome Ms but the TT2 would look good too.

I'm waiting on an order of the TT-M but i got antrhasite for my black car.. everything else is back ordered 45 days +.

at least that is what i was told.

And a local place priced matched the dealer on here and added the new luggs and an alignement some i'm very happy..

Now if i can just get at thouse rims to seal up the back before they put them on.

Car looks sick, actually changed my mind on what rims i'm going to buy.

You should get the bird painted silver on your plate filler, that would look good as hell. Open up the link in my sig, you can see what it looks like
