Torq Thrust 200S

I am going back and forth between the Torq Thrust II's and the Torq Thrust 200S for my T/A. Does anybody have the the 200S and would be willing to post a picture, or maybe even photoshop these onto my car....that would be awesome.

Here is a crappy picture of my car...

Here is a picture of the Torq Thrust 200S I am thinking about..

I kind of like the painted centers but what are your opinions on painted or polished centers or if I should go with the TT II's over these. I really like the design of these better but I can't decide what would fit better with my car.

Oh and I am going with 17 inch.

I just had another idea, what if I painted the centers gold instead of the graphite color in the picture above? I would paint them the color of the inlays on this rim...



I think it would look pretty good and kind of mimic the factory recaro WS6 rims that are on there now except with a much more pleasing style. What do you think?

why dont you paint it with a clear/paint cote over the chrome.... to make them look anodized in the middles.....Like use Anodizit paint by Plastikote. It uses a single base aluminum coat and then you could choose between blue or red colored almost candy coat. But cause your painting chrome you can skip the alum. base coat and just use the colored top coat... I forget the name of the stuff i used on my stb .... its the same idea just a different brand and i think they came in read blue and gold.... I think gold chrome would look sweet!
