I just put some pony wheels off a 92 mustang on my tc so I have no use for the stock wheels so just wondering what they're worth? If they are't worth much i'll probably just s em since it would be a pain in the arse to ship them
They may be worth more to someone needing a set than for just the weight in aluminum.
What shape are they in? If they're really nice, and have all the caps....
Personally, I's s the Pony's, and keep the Snowflakes, but that's just me :punchballs:
I think there is a guy over on NATO that is in Mn looking for a set.
I saw a set sell for $240 plus $80 shipping, for a set that had been repainted all silver. That is what I am going to do if I ever get the time
just me, but about a year and a half ago, i sped like 6 snowflakes. got $13 a piece at the time. they're cool to me on my original '87, but other than that, i dont like em, personally.
craigslist is your friend.....;)
100 bucks for a set of 4 un-damaged is about what they go for around here.
I guess i'll throw em on craigslist and see, they're decent at best kinda scuffed up and hazy but not bent or anything, centercaps are all good though.. If they weren't so hideous I woulda kept em on it but yuck
I agree.. snowflakes are hideous... just s em... LOL
$12-15 in s.
Snowflakes look good to me;)

Personal opinion I suppose but I think the pony wheels look way better on my car than the snowflakes
I agree. When the Snowflakes are clean and without clearcoat problems and paint peeling, they are hard to beat.
Car looks great ! Are those wheels reconditioned or super clean originals ?
For your viewing pleasure....;)

I also like the Ponys better (if the choice is snowflakes or Ponys).I had a set of polished snowflakes on my last T-Bird,and they were O.K.,but to me....my own opinion,they seem like there's too much going on in that 16 inch circle. Too "complicated" or "cluttered" so to speak for these cars.But,that's just my own opinion.It all comes down to what an individual likes.A lot of people may not like my wheels,but,I like them,so,that's really all that matters.
That is a good looking blue car!
Snowflake fan here too. They are unique to these cars which make them cool.
I guess since I started the thread I better put some pics up too :D

I striped and sanded the wheels that are on my car.
Well it looks like mine were worth 100 bucks cuz thats what I just sold em for haha
There's something especially gross about having Muskrat emblems on your Thunderbird. I would look for some unadorned centre caps soon.
Remind me to never again take a drink of Dr Pepper immediately before reading one of your posts! :rollin:
You owe me a shot of windex and a paper towel lmao
Muskrat...hell yes...I love it! :bowdown::D
Meh they're both fords so who cares haha, plus i'd take my mustang over my turbo coupe any day of the week :D
cant agree more.
i like mustangs but i dont drive one. though i dont mind the cobra symbol.
Well, Cobra is Ford, but not just Mustang. That would be kind of like using GT-R emblems on a 240, though. Or like the late 90's Camaro I saw the other day with a Yenko SS stripe (it said Yenko SS too), and stock wheels.
I didn't even like having 5.0 badges on my car when I bought it
and check my user name :hick:
Cobra R rims are on every Mustang in the world. I hate 5 spoke rims. I know the FR500 rims are basicly 5 spoke but I like them better. My choice is a set of aftermarket 93 Cobra rims in chrome. When I have the cash I want to buy a set for my Bird.
