				WTB: 79-81 Trans Am "Turbine rims"
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			Needing to take measurements, and need two matching size turbine rims. There are 15X7 and 15X8 sizes. Would prefer the 15X8, thanks.

			My boss has a NOS set or 4 still in the boxes. I believe they are 15x8.  He's asking $1000 and I doubt he would be willing to split them up.

			What are you referring to as turbine rims. Factory never offered such.  Do you mean snowflakes?  I have a set of 15x8 snowflakes.  
 
Western made a set of turbine looking rims similar to the late Fox body Mustang GT if that is what your are referencing. These were aftermarket. 
 
OR are you referencing the Turbo wheels? I have a set of those also.

 The rims I'm reffering to came on the 10th Anniv. Trans Am's, Daytona 500 Editions, and a few other trims I believe. They look like this:
  
EDIT: Found a site with restored sets, basically $175 a pop, not too shabby:

			The line on the wheel by the valve stem hole is a wire tag, not a scratch or crack.  And they are 15x8
