Lookin' good Matt! I was looking at WS6 TA's before I bought my Corvette. I couldn't find any that weren't black or I would be driving a TA today instead of my 2000 coupe.

It is a Pontiac... and a very nice, rare one at that. The fact that you come in "indirectly" trying to get the mods to lock the thread by your little remark is laughable. So I threw in a few pics of my C5Z to appease YOU... Seems as though everyone else has nothing but positive comments.. ( those who choose to comment). It's your M.O Bill.... Clearly not a C5... Did you really have to come in and **** on my thread?

A lot of guy on this forum have multiple vehicles, I don't see anyone else whining about a pic of a "Pontiac"... Everyone on this forum knows my
C5Z!

I am not whining at all, I told you a number of times it was a nice car, I based my post on the mods actions on how they handle non Vette threads, Sorry I got your pants in an up roar, In case you didn't notice I did delete my post about the thread a while ago.
Again I am sorry you feel I was being negative about you posting a WS6, I wasn't at all.
Again, I am sorry.

No worries... Bad day (me)... We all have em... My apologies for overreacting...

Thanks Buddy, I sold the Camaro a couple of months ago, We still have the WS6, That isn't going anywhere.

They are the TT2 (2pc) wheels.... got them from Summit Racing. 17x9.5 up front, 17x11 in the rear... running a Nitto 555 (275) up front and the Nitto 555R (315) out back... I had found some FIKSE FM5's that I wanted but a buddy of mine snagged em up before I could even bid... The TT2 is a pretty common wheels for the 4th gen Fbod's although I have seen them on C1,C2's and the look very nice!

I was looking at installing Torq Thrust II on my 2nd gen, If I still had the car they would be on it.
