I have an '88 Shadow ES T1/Auto.
What wheels originally came on the car. I'm thinking it should have had crab wheels on it. I seen a black 88 ES when I was in Toronto that had those wheels.
I forget what the door sticker said the tire size was, and its to cold to go look at the moment. But I'm thinking 205/50-15's...I'm probably wrong.

Just wondering what wheels SHOULD be on my car. There were 2 different widths of crab wheels correct? If those are the style wheels that are supposed to be on it...Does anybody have a decent set for sale? Preferably the wider ones. ;)

Yes, the early Shadow ES Turbos had crab wheels in the smaller 15 x 6" wide size. The larger Daytona 15 x 6.5" wide crabs will fit but unless you swap the rack out, will rub the inner fender when turned fully. It's not a big problem though.

Thanks John. Much appriciated. I sent some people on the fourm PMs that had 15x6 crabs for sale. Hopefully I can pick a set up. I'm hoping to have the Shadow up and embarassing mustangs in about a month. :D
