    What Rims?

    Ok right now I have steelies with hubcaps. I don't have a pic but if you click my sig and go and look at my exahust videos you will see them. They are the police type ones. Like they have on the new vics as well.

    Shoudl I leave these... put the turbines back on.. or paint the turbines black and put them on?

              Hawk, what looks are you going for - more civilizes, or more hot-rod? For the civilized use steel wheels, for the hot-rod paint the turbines black and use chrome hubcaps. Turbines with no center caps look like shit (on a TC at least), unless they are the not-so-often-seen type designed to be used without a center cap. Regular turbines I don't think will look good on your car, and without center caps they'll be even worse.

                Honestly I hate the center caps. I never drove with a set on my Vic. I just ran the turbines...but honestly I think the black turbines with some dog dish caps will look much more tough than painted turbines.

                  For a Vic I'd say just plain black steelies.

                    Eventually when I get all the mechical stuff I want to do a Americna Racing Outlaw II or somethign similar. Right now I'm looking into putting some police spot lights in in the future...So maybe I will keep the steelies with caps.

                    I just wanted to maybe do some black turbines for shit's and giggles.
