I normally don`t like hub caps, but I agree with Ray.
What year corvette did the turbine wheels come on?
Just asking.

With the white lettered sidewalls, the turbines look awesome. I do like keeping things stock too. Like you said though, it's what you like best.

I still like hubcaps. At least until my new wheels arrive. I may even put 4 tires on the car that are all the same.



Or, this was the way it was done back in the day.

turbines never came on any Vette, but they are very close to what the knock offs look like, especially the 67s with the cone in the middle. C3s came with an optional turbine look wheel cover. I have a set of those too...:seasix:
