I think all of the 87/88 TC wheels were that grayish color, no matter what color the interior was. At least, that's the only color I've seen in the 12-15 TCs we've parted out.

I have owned two Blue interiors in Thunderbird and the wheels were all blue. One was a TC and this one is a sport. I also looked at a TC with a blue interior and the wheel was blue.

Well, maybe bluish gray would be a better description. lol. My point was they were all the same, at least for us. We've parted blue, gray, red and tan interior TCs and all of the wheels were the same color. If you have trouble finding one, let me know and I'll dig through our parts and try to round up some steering wheels.

Here are three 87/88 TC wheels. At least one of them, maybe two, came from blue TCs. We've got a few more wheels around, but they are all the same. Also, they all have good horn buttons with unbroken tabs.

Yeah. I just bought a whole turbo coupe and that is the same color. Matches the trim on the dash cover for the insrument cluster.
