Here's a picture from TireRack.com that should help. Their site lets you "try wheels on" to almost any car. Go to TireRack.com, click on shop for wheels and enter the year, make and model. They do not have official turbo twist wheels but these generic ones look just about the same. They also have about eight different types of wheels that you should check out.

Serge, if you love them so much why did you sell yours to me? I know, 15's, every weekend I get closer to getting them finished. Travis is already complaining about his Ghetto wheels; my answer is "You polish them, you wrecked them, I got **** to do"

I love the look of the twist wheels..
Now I see them on a car that is my color...

I like them..

The only thing I hate is :
One side points forward
One side points Backward

Why couldn't they make them :
2 - Clockwise twist
2 - Counter Clockwise twist

That right there would drive me bonkers..

Yeah, I've heard that too Tony.
Who knows - maybe we think too highly of the Porsche engineers!

Except that the points on the Pshop'd picture above are pointing in the wrong direction. Don't know how but they are. The outer legs of the 5 points should point towards the front of the car on top and the back of the car on the bottom. Atleast that's how mine are.

Look at the little picture of my car below VVVVV

It's fine if you do the bulk of your traveling in reverse.

OH! HAHAHA, you know why the points are wrong! When i did the photoshop i took the wheels from a car facing the other direction! When i imported them into the new file i totally forgot to reverse them back to normal! HAHAHA, my bad!

If you want i can repost the file, i have it saved in layers. You will have to wait til sunday though cause i wont have access to my computer til then.
