Well it's finally time for a new set of rims. I've settled for my stock 15's long enough, now I'm ready for something new. I'm pretty open to suggestions and I'd love to throw a set of TT2's on my car but I'd like to be a little bit different. I am leaning strongly towards the Firehawk wheels in either chrome or standard aluminum. I think the chrome is a little too much for my car but anyways, here are a few pictures I photoshoped. Let me know what you think or suggest me a set of wheels.

 

i dont think tt2s would look right , and no way on the chrome ,what about going with snypers , they look great , i think snypers would look great .

 

I would go w TT2's with the spokes painted body color, and a polished cap and lip.

 

aluminum firehawks.

Ive seem the chrome firehawks in person and they're way to 'blingy'

 

Keep in mind that if you go with a wheel that has thinner spokes you're going to see the brakes more. Which is going to look ridiculous behind big wheels, and you'll be spending money on big brakes shortly after.

 

If your bank account is unlimited, how about some CCW's

 

LOL it's not!! I would love a set of CCW's though.

 

firehawks would look damn good on your car

 

polished hawks for sure

 

ROH ZS in gunmetal grey with polished lips 18".

 

Looking at your car and what you've done to it so far, there's no doubt that whatever wheel you choose will be a very good choice.

I love chrome, but it's not necessarily right for all colors and schemes. And I agree with you here that it might not be the best choice for yours.

The standard machined Firehawks would definitely look good on your car.

Another choice you might consider, that few cars can wear well that I think yours could, is a black wheel with a polished or machined lip.

 

You should do 18" TT2's with the spokes painted your body color and polished lip would be badass.

 

Firehawks dude! But not chome.

 

polished or machined, not chrome for your car..

 

ROH RT with black ice might go.

 

What kind of rims is that? On the ps mod pic

 

i agree with those wheels konartist said there was a guy on here one time that posted pics of his vert camaro and it had the tt2's with the grey painted spokes it was very very nice. and you can get the tt2's with the spokes painted grey you dont have to have them painted yourself. if you are interested in those wheels though i would check out vision wheels they sell a lookalike torque thrust wheel for a hell of alot cheaper.

btw i dont think the ronals look good on non gfx cars but thats just my opinion.

 

Silver firehawks for the win!

 

non-polished Firehawks, you won't regret it at all.

 

Im actually the complete opposite, i think that the non gfx cars should have them. Fits more in my opinion heh.

but i say non chrome firehawks/ronals with black painted spokes

ROH ZS are another good choice...

 

I had ROH rims on my car as you can see in my avitar and sig.

Here's how my car looks with the 2002 Trans Am Ram Air rims,

haven't washed the car in 11 days so excuse the "rust" on the rotors, it just rained.

Thanks,

Eric.
heres the before and after

 

Here's what the TT2's with painted spokes would look like. (Excuse the bad photoshop skills.)

 

Your color is really hard to pick wheels for,

1. No chrome. Your gonna need some Black or grey in the wheel.

Maybe gun metal c6 z06's
black gta wheels

 

PAINTED TT2'S FTW!

 

Coys Wheel and tire makes a tt2 looking wheel that is pretty cool, and can be bought with silver spokes. Coy's Custom Wheel & Tire

Just thought it might be cool to do a little different wheel than everybody on here has, especially since your car looks nothing like anyone elses. Nice work with the paint and sub enclosure BTW.

 

heres somw black TTII if you want ps it. I found these on ebay.

 

Thanks for all the replies guys. I like the Coys rims alot and they are decently priced too. I haven't eliminated the TT2's yet, but they are in line behind the Ronals and the Coys. I can't decide just yet, choosing wheels isn't easy!

 

Glad to hear that you like the coys wheels, I thought that they look great and the color would really compliment your paint. If your go that route make sure your are at least doing 17", but I think 18" would be best!

Later

 

snypers or ronals, mayb an all black wheel

 

I think I have decided on these:





They offer them in 17x7, 17x8, 18x8, and 18x9.5 with 4, 4.5 bs. The 18x9.5's are offered in 5, 5.5 bs. Any suggestions on sizes, backspacing or tire size would be appreciated.

 

firehawks look good, but i always thought they kinda looked like truck and suv wheels, dont know theyre big. and if you do get firehawks, dont go with the chrome ones. i think GTA's would look good, but that might not be your thing.

 

I agree completely

 

Here is a pick of OUTATIME GTA's with the ttII's.It look awesome in person.

I love the firehawks on firebirds w/out gfx, but definitely don't go chrome.

 

your makin the right choice.. the grey tt2's are gonna look soo kick *** one your car

 

Those are going to look so sweet! Glad you took the time to look at these. They will set you apart from the crowd a little, and still give you the desired look. I love my 18"s and would not go back to 17", they just look so cool filling the wheel well with rim! If it were me I would do a 18x8 up front, and 18x9.5 in the rear. I think from the back space that they offer a 4.5f, and 5.5r should work. Make sure you post some pics when you get them on.

Later,
Brandon.

 

I ordered my rims this afternoon. I ended up going with the 18x8's all the way around. I figured the price difference with tires between the 18x8's and 18x9.5's in the rear as well as 18x8's all the way around. Coy's gave me a great deal on the 18x8's, so I went with those. I have read 245/40/18 is the preferred size but I am thinking of going with a 45 series sidewall. I haven't decided if I want the same width all the way around or wider in the rear, so many choices!! By the way, I highly recommend Coy's Wheels so far. Their customer service was great and they were very cooperative. The wheels should be here in 5 days.

 

Coys used to be a local shop out here in CO, and they were very cool when they were here. They sure have stepped up an bunch now that they are designing their own wheels. Those 18x8's will look very nice, but I would stay with a 40 series tire. NICE JOB!

 

Good choice! Those will look awesome!!
