Default Sold the boyds and got *sight*... tt2s.

I know I know... Noone likes TT2s bc they're "overdone", but I never see them on the streets and personally, I love how much more agressive the car sits now. Owned them before with one of my prev z28s, and loved the hell out of them. The boyds were nice, but not what I wanted(only 18x9 in the rear ). Just need to get rid of the nitto DRs for some BFGs now . Sorry for the blurry pics. Not sure why they turned out so shitty, maybe bc it was getting dark?

PS. Thats chargerr/t debadging the MF party bus. next mod... cutout . Calling lethal tomorrow.

17x11. I absolutely hated having 9in rear rims. I think 10.5+ is the only way to go.

Sorry for the dumb question, but did you have to roll the fenders to make them fit?

Sorry to thread jack, but would you be interested in selling the Nittos? If so how much life is left and what would you have to have?

BTW your car looks amazing, super agressive stance what suspension do you have?

Not yet. But I'll need to. Even with the thin nitto 315s I've noticed a couple scrapes already from my fender.

Ya I'll sell them. The outsides have lots of tread(for drs) and the inner is pretty much bald IIRC. I'll take some pics for you.
Also, Im running sportlines.

To everyone else.. Thanks for the compliments . You cant beat TT2s IMO. Heres the stance they had on one of my old z28s. Same suspension set up as well. Looks killer.

I love TT2s. The reason a lot of people have them is that they are awesome.

Good lord looks like its on bags! What are you running for suspension? But it looks pretty sweet. I know TTII's are used a lot, but they still look amazing you can't deny that. Awesome car!

The god of wheels is you haha I always liked your rides, first the Camaro now the T/A both with TT2's, love those rims that's why I also had a couple of sets on different cars just like you. I just got rid of them and bought some AR Rebels, the ones in the back are gonna be widen, can't go wrong with 11" rear as you mentioned.
