Time to start saving the money.... new wheels

probably gonna buy them feb or march because i dont feel like buying new tires when i just bought them back in january but here are what i narrowed my choices down to


1. (probably what ill end up with) ruff racing 278's 18x8.5 and 18x9.5




2. ccw's love the wheels love the extremely lightweight but dont like the price tag still a good possibility though




3. smoothie 2's cuz i like tt2's but to many people have them



4. c5 zo6's i like them and they are cheap but also pretty heavy

I like the CCWs, but the Ruffs are really nice too.

No C5 Z06s....and I stay away from Boyd's stuff just out of principle.

ruffs look real nice and will save you a pretty penny compared to the ccw's. What do they cost?

if you like TT2's, get them. Just cause so many people have doesn't mean you shouldn't get them if they look nice.

keep in mine your driving a car that A LOT of other people have also....
