17" Torq Thrust M- question
Hey guys, tryin to get a set of TTM in Anthracite for my 91. Gonna stick with 17x8 on the front with 245's. The supplier may not be able to get the rear 17x 10.5's I want (with a 275 tire). I have a 4th gen rear I want to swap in, but I'm afraid if I go with the 17x9 wheel for the rear (he can get the 9's for sure) it won't look right when I do the rear end swap. Of course I could just do 17x8 all around for now with same size tires and be able to rotate- but then when I swap the rear I will have the same problem of needing the wheels with a deeper offset.
Anybody got any pics of 17x9 TT wheels on the rear that I could see?
Really not sure I want to do the 17x9 on the front, I like the tires to be tucked inside nicely- and don't like really wide stuff on the front end anyway. I know several have probably done 9's on the front- wouldn't mind seeing pics of those too for comparison.

Just order it with a 4 the gen offset. You will need adapters for the rear on a thirdgen rearend. I have Polished ZR1's with a GS OS. Im using 2.25" adapter in front & a 2" adapter in back. Im running a 315 tire in back. It tucks under the fender lip, but im at stock height. Fronts are 275 also...
