Thanks!

Those sizes will be fine at that temp. If you want a crispy skin on them you'll have to finish them at a higher temp. If the ribs are still going, I'd probably finish them in a 325 oven for crisp. On mine, I toss the skin anyway so it wouldn't matter if it was chewy or not.

You could also roll them around on a hot grill to just crisp the skin without cooking the meat much anymore.

I would also kick up th temp on the smoker to atleast 295-320 or so for the last hours or so to crisp the skin. I would already have pulled the ribs thou. Another word to the wise is makesure the turkey is on the bottom shelf. You don't want the juices to drip onto the ribs it's not a good thing.
