Car: 91z28 Engine: 383HSR Transmission: T56 Axle/Gears: 3.73s | I dont think there is a lot of difference in the smoothie 2 rims compared to the TT2 rims. If there isnt a correct size offered in the smootie 2 for our car then Id get the TT2 wheels. There a lot cheaper too.

I think the Original smoothie rims looks a lot like the TT2 rims though.
I know this is a bit off subject but I really like the color of your car and I was also wondering if you took the nose emblem off or did you get a front end with no emblem or something? |

sizes? | I might be able to help since that is my car and I had them made by Fikse back in 1999. They are a one off set of Fikse FM/5's custom made for my car. They measure 17x9.5 front and 17x10.5 rear. I currently have Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 275/40/17 fronts and 315/35/17 rears on the car and I swap out rear tires with Nitto Drag radials on occasion. |

Thats the first bird I have seen with them however. |

C6 wheels look good on a C6, I'm not impressed with them on most other cars. There are some great looking wheels in this thread though. Great thread. |
