Not to jump a thread, but those turbines you have wouldn't happen to be a unilug, would they? I'm looking for a set for my Fury III.
Thanks
Mark

I think they'll do for now. But keep on the lookout for the turbines.

Never smash... never trash, always pass on to another. Even if you have to take a bit of loss, don't trash.

Truckboy, I don't know, I am going on hearsay. Maybe tomorrow I can dig around and see if they are still in existence.

i didnt know that there was a deman for turbines. My uncle has a set on a 67 chevy. They are 15x10. They are in excelent shape. I am going to buy the truck and probably sell the rims. What are they worth?

Wow, I didn't think this many ppl would like them. I think they are a bit better than OK, but i do prefer the turbines.
For anyone interested in getting a set, the center hole needed elarged by a hair

personally i think a big improvment would be paint the bronzish color to match the truck or black
