traded xtra set of mesh wheels for ttII, what do ya think
I have never been a fan of the torq thrust II style rim but a member offered to trade me a set of 17's for my extra set of black mesh wheels
that needed to be refinished so I said ok(just planning to sell them anyway). I decided to mock em up on my gta and I kind of like them. Just wanted to get a few opinoins on how they look.. thanks

They're alright, but I wouldn't stick with them as a permanent wheel. I used to really love the TTII's, but, the style just seems worn out.
Car looks good otherwise!

While I do like the look on classic muscle cars, not so much on the thirdgens.
But your car is so nice, whatever wheels you put on it are going to look good...

I see they don't stick out as far as they did with my 86. I say it looks good but I like the original look of crosslaces.

i dont like those wheels personally, but the look fine on the car. I like the crosslaces too, but they can be a issue with brakes if you want to upgrade.

Re: traded xtra set of mesh wheels for ttII, what do ya think
I figured it would. They stuck out about 3/4 of an inch on my 86. I know it would rub if I lowered it.

Sadly even with the crosslaces it still sticks out a bit. We will see once I have it all back together fully. I might be interested in your 2inch drop springs. I have around a 7inch fender to tire gap right now. All that's missing is the trans, hood, front end bumper, etc.
