Wheels for NBM WS6

**j nix** · 05-13-2011, 08:08 AM

I have an '02 WS6. I have the polished aluminum speedlines and wanted to switch them for new wheels and tires. I decided on Nitto 555's, 2754017 in front and 3153517 in back. I was considering the TTM's chrome or anthracite center and machined lip. What color do you guys think would look best on my NBM? Anybody have any picks of them on NBM?

Nice wheels. I saw a 2011 T/A conversion kit for the camaro. It was a smoky and the bandit black and gold. Pretty sweet! It had those similar wheels. What do you think about color for TTM's? I was also considering c6 zo6's, gun metal center with machined lip.

You mean these? I'm impartial to black rims on most cars, I think it looks great. On NBM, dark color, this is no exception.

If you want a better look at the whole car with 'em, granted a black car, just click the avatar.

The black with the machined lip look great on your black WS6. I just don't know about black on my NBM. Hoping to see a picture with the black on the NBM.

Fair enough sir. I could attempt a photoshop thing for ya later perhaps. Until then gl, either way I think your car is gonna look sweet.

Thanks. My brother in law works on cleaning up the 2012 cars with graphics programs. I was thinking he might be able o do something as well.. If he can I will post it.

On NBM, with TTM's, I'd DEFINITELY go with the anthracite color. I love the look of that combo, in fact if I ever changed the wheels on my NBM Formula, those are probably the ones I'd go with.

I guess i'll be the only one to say chrome, looks best imo.
I personally like to see some contrast in there. Plus i like to be able to see my wheels at night

Usually I am pretty good at knowing what I like. I just haven't seen enough of the anthracite and machined, which is one reason why I want them. But I do like my wheels to shine. I know there are a lot with the TTM's, but none around here that I've seen. I really don't care though. Out of all the wheels that fit our car, I always think the Torque Thrust look great. The curve of the spokes look nice with the curves of the TA. And i like the look of muscle that it adds. Tater, I think I have similar taste as you, so Im glad you replied. Maybe a few more replies will help me decide. Do you think 3153517's will fit with the Prokit. Tater I know you said you had to beat up your wheel well with your setup.

Don't get me wrong the TTII's are nice I just fill that everyone has them and I wanted something that was a little more me. I've always loved the 2nd Gen T/A's and this sorta ties them into mine.

**j nix** · 05-14-2011, 03:45 PM

Actually I know the TTII's and TTM's are very similar, but I like the M's because of the wide flat lip. Gives it the muscle car look with the spokes and modern look with the wide flat lip. The II's are totally muscle, hot rod with the stepped lip. Oppossite of SMWS6TA, i am trying to tie my car into more modern day. Just my opinion.

i like chrome or dark grey/ gunmetal with polished lip. smoothie 2's with the gunmetal and polishe lip would look sweet.
i went with zr1's cheap and i got 11's in the rear.

i really like these ruff racing ones.

You should be able to, will be tight but with the right offset you should be fine. And i did have to beat up my wheel wells pretty good but i ran 335s. with 315s, some have to hammer some don't. I'm betting you will have to lowered though.

NBM Rocks! I also have a 02 NBM WS6.....Has the M6 trans. I love the car and the color! I just got mine a couple weeks ago and I just joined here today. I think there a lot of wheels that look good on these cars. The TTM's will look great! I will be watching to see what you choose

**j nix** · 05-15-2011, 11:18 AM

I forgot about smoothies, I will check them out. They look like the TT's right. Any one know where to get them? Wondering what size for the back and the offset. daytonayellaz glad to have you on the site. Wish I had an M6. A4 here, but doesn't stop me from have fun.
