Hope it isn't a repost. First I was wondering why he put those ugly rims on. Then I saw the front 14" rotors.

the car does look cool but he wrecked a car that would have been worth a lot of money down the road. I mean its cool and i would love to have the car. I wonder what it would run in the quarter mile.

a) car's not been wrecked
b) all original parts come with it
c) he did an amazing job trying to replicate the look of GTA wheels in 18 inches. they even have the lip that the GTA wheels have.
Very impressive :hail:

I prefer the original TTA rims on my Turbo TA. Changing the rims on this car is like putting centerlines on a GNX... not my preference.

***I just found out the other day that the tires Goodyear ZR50s is the original rubber that came with the car. The 14 year old tires are in exceptional condition given the car has 26,000 miles. To me that means the car has never been hotrodded due to the excellent condition of the tread that has much life on all 4.

How did he ruin the car? I think he did a DAMN nice job on it. Hell, with 1555 cars that were produced, modding a few of them wont hurt anybody. And those rims are totally BAD ***!

Very Nice
I like the wheels, I think anything more the 18 looks getto also
But those wheels seem to compliment the look of the TTA. My personal selection would be 275/45/17 all the way around, that is a hard look to beat on a 3rd Gen.
TTA would be one fine rig to own, hope someone here buy it

Guys, that car is BAD! The guy who did that is Heath Elmer out of AZ. He is very well known for his modified Turbo Regals and TTA's. That car handles and moves like you wouldn't believe. Heath has had a couple of cars in GM High Tech Performance magazine. It is a nice car!
