Which Torq Thrust's do you have now??
I think everybody is sick of the chrome or polished TT II's.
Is that what you have?

IMO, Torq Thrust D's (or O's) give first gen Camaro's the best classic look.

"O's" are for Original. They look a lot like Torq Thrust D's but the spokes are straight.

I really don't see much difference between a Torque Thrust II and a D, except the finish, and none there if you get the chrome finish D's. So I'm assuming you're talking the dark finish D vs. polished or chrome finish.
I love old school style wheels, and the old spokes are great!

Just put Cragar SS 61B on a 68 vert and am very happy with the look. Similar to the TT Ds.
