Tux_Fan Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I am looking for a set of rims for my jeep comanche. The current ones are from a ranger that the PO hacked the center out of to get them to fit. I doubt they are safe... I am really looking for an old school set of aluminum turbine/hurricane rims. I have seen several sets by Ford and American Racing that might fit. Or Jeep turbines are cool too. Or sawblade aftermarket aluminum rims. Otherwise, I will consider almost any type of older cherokee/comanche jeep alloy, the jeep steelies from a cherokee but not the star type ones, most aftermarket steelies, most 80's and 90's non chrome aluminum aftermarkets. Let me know what you have. I am really not that picky. The only things I will not buy for sure is 16" and bigger rims, Chrome rims, or newer style rims. I want something old that looks like it goes with the truck... As far as tires I will consider anything with legal tread between 225/75/15s and 31s but nothing bigger. I am willing to drive most places in Florida for a set of turbines or old school aftermarket aluminum rims. I live in Bradenton which is a little south of Tampa and am willing to drive up to 2 hours for anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenobian_84 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Might you be interested in a set like these? Not exactly the "traditional" Turbine rims, but they've looked good since I put them on. Came off another MJ at the P&P (originally from an 80s Grand Marquis) Aluminum with no blemishes / cracks or dents. The Truck in question. Looking to get myself some steelies down the road. If I can find some soon, I wouldn't mind letting these go. Only if I can get myself the steelies I'm looking for though... :fs1: Don't know if you need these ASAP though.

If you can't find any within that timeframe, I'm only a few hours drive from either location. If you still want them that is. Will let you know if I find what I'm looking for. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tux_Fan Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 Thanks guys. I ended up scoring a set of old school ford turbines local to me for 120. They look like the ones above. I also managed to get a set of all-terrains with about 90% tread and no dry-rotting for 170!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
