My New Torque Thrust II's !!!!!!

I knew they looked badass in the catalogs, but if you have stock wheels it will change the entire look of your car.
(With my tires I put 255/50/17 on the back and 245/45/17 on the front, 255/50/17 won't fit on the front, (I'm also going to lower the front about an inch))


I also have to update my little picture on my signiture now

They look good and are an improvement over stock wheels, but you see them everywhere.......

I guess I'm the only one who likes the stock rims . I found a website that sells replica's of the stock rims in the larger sizes. I think i'll get some 17" ones to replace the 15 inchers on my RS. For some reason those rims just don't match our cars at all in my opinion. I polished my rims and everyone at school thinks I have these awesome aftermarket rims now, even though they're the stockers.

with all do respect then they must not know much about wheels. most who are in the know highly respect a good set of billet wheels that are custom. unfortunately TTII's are so popular they are often times overlooked.

a larger stock upgrade is still nice for that clean classic look. if i had a iroc i would have them in 18's.

I've only seen them on 1 car around here and that was on a 60's mustang.

There's only 2 major ones a year in the area lol during the summer there's a mini one every 2nd thursday at a burger joint but it's the same cars over and over. Around town driving, you never see a car with those rims on. This place is over run by them other cars that buzz around. The real cars are always in the garage being pampered only coming out for shows, parades or special things

nothing harsh by it, ttII's set the standard for custom wheels as they were one of the first real popular designs to take off. look at how many factory vehicles are now using similar designs...

beautiful wheel no doubt, just common.

You would think with the amount of sales the price might go down!

Also, they may be popular on this site but I have yet to see one with TT2s around here...I've only seen one customized 3rd gen and it had 18" Chrome Irocs...
