Also, I made a mistake. The tires on the turbine wheels are actually 235/60R15s, so the narrower tires I bought are that much narrower than what I had originally thought.

Who cares? Your talking fractions on an inch on tires and rims you already own. They will fit, and look fine without any issue. 215/70's are a stock size, and your turbines are a stock wheel.

Google tire calculators and fine the tacoma calculator.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

All factory Pony wheels are 16".  They have tires, but the are pretty worn out.

Oh, ok. Would you be interested in some really nice tires to go along with the turbines? I have a set of Hankook Optimo 215/70R15s. They have less than 2000 miles on them. Tread is great. I paid $200 for them, but I'll sell everything to you $215 (turbines and tires). I've decided to stay with 14" tires, but I need these gone first. I'd like to sl everything together if I can.
Thanks!
