- Adam,
-
- No, these are not the GT 5.0 turbine-style rims that are found on the 87-90
- Mustangs. Those ones, which I had but sold about two months ago, go for
- about $500 a set. I had three sets: the GT ones, the LX 5.0 ones (has
- 10-holes), and the TRX wheels.
-
- My car is an '83, but I've updated it to look like a much newer one, so I
- want to get rid of the original-equipment TRX wheels. I am running on
- the LX 5.0L wheels with 225/60-15 performance tires right now.
-
- The TRX wheels came as part of a high performance suspension option on
- '82-'84 Mustang GTs. They are *VERY* light and allow for exceptional
- acceleration and cornering.
-
- Most TRX wheels are dull and depthless, but I've taken out about 5 hours
- on each custom polishing them. They look incredible (like chrome, but they
- are aluminum) but I no longer need them.
-
- I wanted $75 for all four. TRX wheels are not really popular with late
- model 5.0L cars, as the LX 5.0L and GT 5.0L wheels are original equipment.
- Most people equip their pre-87 cars with the TRXs.
-
- Hope this helps.
