Default Finally...TT Wheels.

finally got to go pick them up. my uncle gave me them from his wrecked supra. it just got done being rebuilt so i got to pick up the TT wheels. They are in ok shape...every wheel has damage (supra spun out and got to know the curbs really well), but im planning on having Magmasters in Santa Ana, CA fix them and powdercoat them when i get the money. to get these to my house i took out my back seats and i had 3 there and 1 in the trunk LOL.

dude... we should see if Mag Masters will give us a group rate. My TTs are shot as well. I'm going to be taking them off & getting them refinished, then powerder coated.

Some people don't like them, or think they're played out on SCs, but I enjoy the understated looks and the way the stick to the road... especially with 275s out back

I have chrome TTs on my garnet SC, i wouldnt have any other rim. They look OEM but beefy and sporty as hell , they fit the car and color perfect! They give it that sports car but not full out racer look.

I was considering black, but I think it's too played out... everyone has them.

For powdercoating in LA, I found a place that supposedly charges $30 a wheel.

(I got that link from Supra Forums)

Here's a list of colors you can choose from:

I'm considering forklift grey -- It'll go well with Platinum Silver, it's not exactly black, but it's not as generic as silver.
