Updated pics: (sorry, but I had a terrible place to shoot pics at the track, and the car is still dirty)
I got all of the centers finished and installed.
The front wheels are 15 x 7 Centerlines and the tires are 205-65.
The rears are 16 x 8 Centerlines and 295-50-16 M/T ET STreet Drag Radials.
This gray Bird is my # 1 bracket car and last night I put the centers to the test.
I put about 12 passes on those wheels and they never lost torque on the 2nd set of lug nuts.
I am very pleased with how well those Forged aluminum TRX centers turned out with the 2500 grit satin finish.

Totally worth the revival. That t-bird looks awesome, and I love how the owner worked around buying $2000 worth of tires to run those beautiful trx's!
Cheers!

Haha. Glad I found this thread
I think, that unless we know tires for TRXs will get cheaper soon, I think this is the way to go. Sure it might seem like a bit of work and too much money to bother with, but look at it in the long run, you will save a tremendous amount of money for tires when you need new, they make the fox's look sweet, and you could probably do this to different width wheels.
No need to swap to 5lug cause you can't find tires for factory rims or a shortage of awesome rims for 4 lug.
I would like to see more people start doing this with curb rashed TRXs.
