Re: check out my turbines

They look nice. If they were mine, I'd look into stripping the black paint off the leading edge of the ridges.

Very nice lookin' rig! I'm running the same tires (but a lot skinnier)

Re: check out my turbines

I plan to strip off the paint after I made sure I liked them, I am thinking about getting a harbour freight soda blaster to do the job, anyone with experience chime in please. Its gonna be a long winter here I already miss driving it!

Re: check out my turbines

Nice - will look even better once you get the black paint off of them.

Re: check out my turbines

I've had those on my C-10 since about 1987, unpainted. I still like them. I'm going to use an old set of aluminum slots on my Jimmy.
