Just picked up a nice (used) set of Torq Trust D's (15x7 and 15x8.5).

Anyone is running TT's on his Charger?

Please post a pic :cheers:

They look best, in my opinion, on Red First-Gen's and Orange Second-Gen's. I love them though on just near anything!! :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :coolgleamA: :coolgleamA: :coolgleamA:

I LOVE TT's.

I can't say I've run them on my Charger, but I had TT II's on my first Corvette and got MEGA compliments on them.... Off subject, but here's a shot.. Big old 335's out back.





I later let my ADD get the best of me and had 5 different sets of wheels&tires on the car and regretted ever selling the TT's

I can't wait to see yours!!  :cheers: :cheers:

Ok, back to Charger talk.. Sorry for burning your eyes with a Chebby.

CB, how can you even consider selling that car?

Nice vette I love C4's it's somewhere between 92-96 or 92-95 if its a 6-Speed right? Here are some more pictures of my car. I just wish the center caps were cheaper since I only have two good ones and only have those plates on the rear.

I'm running TT D's on my Charger.  They are 15x7 and 15x8.5 just like the set you have.  I have quite a bit of pictures of it here:

14X6 on front and 15X8.5 on back, but in a 1st Gen the rears rub a little on one side but i have 3/4- 1 inch left in the back so i need to try to get different backspacing from them

Well they pretty much are. They didn't see any roads yet, the seller only had them fitted on another car and realised the rears don't fit. So he put the rears for sale with an option to buy the full set.

So I ended up with the set of 'almost new' wheels :2thumbs:

I don't see why some get so bent over color. I buy a car for way more than color. I like the stance. Do you have your TB's cranked up in the front? What's the story on the hood color(sorry if this is old news)?
