I'm still looking for a decent set of wheels for my GTO. I would like TT2's, but the offset are all wrong!!

anyways what do you all think of these wheels?

Never been a fan of chrome, but those would like good. It took a bigger picture like the one you posted to change my mind.

I dig 'em, Nick - except for the boltheads...

I'm not fond of the boltheads either, but I do like the look of the spokes. I'm reminded of the old Radir wheels.

I like these also.

35mm....That's pushing the wheel out almost 3/4". I would look at something with a minimum 40mm. As far as the choice, keep looking, out of the three, I like the second one best. It would be nice if you could find a wheel to compliment your two other Goats!!

Cheers,
Mark

I think those AZ7s are sweet! Well, except for the boltheads. I suspect I'd learn to live with the boltheads, though. I really like the "widening spokes" look - maybe because of the S/S wheels on so many of the hot rods of my youth?

IMO a little too blingy...but hey...to each his own.

I'll tell you what we need. We need the version of the Torq Thrust IIs that came on the 2002 WS6 blackbird in a staggered set of 18s! I can't believe that they will not make them to fit the goat. . . :banghead:

I like 'em but does this mean you're giving up on the AR Torque Thrust IIs? I was really hoping you were going to blaze that trail! :) I really want a set but am not 100% about the fitment. Say it ain't so!
