So here's the scoop.
I had an offer today to trade the 15' chrome wheels I have on the TC right now for some clean Turbines with BFG 245/50 rear 225/50 fronts.
Tires look okay, and aren't any worse off than the ones on the chrome rims are. I honestly do not like the wheels I have at all. I wanted to trade them for a set of Ponys or something, but I think that maybe the Turbines would look a bit better on my TC.
What do you all think? When the tires on the Chrome rims were new, I paid 200 dollars for them. The fronts are about shot (camber problems) and the rears aren't much better.
SO, should I do it?
And
Does anybody have a pic of turbines on a black Turbo Coupe i could use for referance? I'd like to see what they would look like. (I may just paint them black......maybey.
Ummm... bump? anybody?
birdbrain use to have a nice black tbird with turbines.... it wasnt a TC but it did look good....

That's the only half decent photo I can find of the TC with turbines on it.
You know, looking at that photo in your sig, it makes me want to get them even more. I'm deciding by Sunday, regardless.
I'm actually leaning twards doing it.
Get the turbines.
Buy my Ponies... LOL.
Go with the Turbines. Theyll look good on your car.
I had some free time earlier so I decided to chop up a picture for you. I haven't used photoshop in ages, but this should give you a rough idea of what they'd look like on your car (plus a few others since I was bored).
you! Now i want to do the 5 lug conversion!
Thanks for the photoshopping... it looks great!
I've made up my mind. I'm going with the turbines as long as they are as clean as the pics i have show. Another question....can I safely use the Acorn style lugnuts on these? what would you guys suggest to replace the short, open style ones I have now?
