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.

He's referring to the American Racing Torq Thrusts. They do look the best on a third gen IMO.
I like the stock 'sleeper' look myself. 16x8 IROCs.

personally, i like stock alloys, i like my 16"ers on the formula, use that extra money you can save on rims and spend it on some sweet tires.

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,

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.

yeah, with those, you'll have to keep good looking rotors and calipers or else it won't work
I prefer those on the vettes myself
they look good on the f-body, but they look beter on the C5
