I personally like the ROH Rims, they look the best as far as aftermarket.

I'll be putting Borbet "Design T" wheels on my car in about a month:
Personally, I dont see why everyone and their mother busts one about the TT II's. They look OK, but not compared to some of the other wheels that are out there, and everyone has em. Save a few extra bucks and be unique
I do like the ROHs and ZR1's though. I was set on ZR1's till I saw the Borbets.

American Racing Torq-TThrust II
17 X 8 Polished IROC wheels
I opted for the IROC wheels, the TT II's were slightly out of my price range. I think that these 2 wheel styles are the nicest for a third gen without having to use adapters. I also like the new chrome 10 spoke SS wheels but adapters are needed for these wheels.

I wish I could find the pic I had of a black 4th gen TA with them, looked freakin KILLER!
Ah ha!! I found the pic!

I think the snypers are a waste of money unless you have a killer brake setup to show off. Personally i like the ZS a lot better. Which is why i went with them.

Its funny, I like the ROH wheels on firebirds better than Camaros, but I like the Ronal "Firehawk" wheels better on Camaros than Firebirds...I like them on the other cars tho,
just a matter of taste,

i'd have to say a clean version of the stock wheels will out shine and get more compliments than any aftermarket wheel out there.
if you have a certain lust for a wheel then by all means go for it.......but if you want something that looks good look to what it came with.
i love custom wheels like the next one, but you just can't go wrong!

Not seeing a large 'bird contingent, my preference is the stock GTA wheel, in black of course.

i think the AMERICAN RACING " LE MANS" wheels were AWESOME!!! too bad they dont make them anymore.. i dont know why... some one needs to find a pic of these..
there was a guy who used to come into my work when i was 20 and had them on a 98 black WS6 17x9's up front.. with 17x11's in back.. and he had the correct back spacing.
