Default Torq Thrust II's are here!

just wanted to make a note of thanks to fellow CorvetteForum member Brian ( aka "B R" ) for a smooth and painless transaction in our 'Wheels and Tires Forum'.

i am now the proud papa of a set of virtually new TT2's (love how those SoCal cars never need cleaning!)
i know some of you fellas aren't into these, but i've had my eye on them for a few years now and am thrilled to finally have a set :crazy:


think they make a nice conversation piece for the coffee table?

cheers to Brian :cheers:
yet another great Forum member!

Personally, I think they are BEAUTIFUL!! :cool:
Wanted a set for my 87...but the price :smash:
Was told that I'd need adapters for the ttII's. IS that true.
Have you put them on yet and how do they fit/look?
Saw a set on a black C4 at an Orlando show...Wow
:cheers:

these look oversized in the photo but they're actually stock @ 17x9.5 with 275/40/17's
it looks like 87 did have a different offset and backspacing from the 88/89's but if you check out American Racing and click on the Application Guide, you'll find TT2's for 87's!

and, i haven't had a chance to try them out yet !!! was away for the long weekend and just returned - couldn't wait to get back :jester

Great, now you've gone and done it. I've always liked the TT's and was looking at the TT II's and wondered what they would look like on my car. Now I have to save my pennies for these. They will need to wait until next year but they are on the "what I would buy if I won the lotto" list.
