I would like to suggest that for premium tanks that an additional consumables and/or additional equipment slot be added. It makes the money spent a little more worth it. Especially if there will not be module upgrades allowed.

Also let the premium tanks have either upgrades to the modules or at least allow other module options ( such as allowing an option for a 128mm or 88mm gun for the Lowe )

The money you spend on a premium doesn't go towards having an as-competitive tier 8 as non-premium tier 8 tanks. It goes towards having a tier 8 that earns more than non-premium tier 8 tanks.

Sadly the T34 currently is a premium tank that can perform perfectly fine with non-premium tier 8 tanks whilst still getting all the income of a premium tank.

Why would you ever want to put the 88 on the Lowe??  The 105 makes that tank what it is....slow, thin-armored, but packs a long-range punch.

Premium tanks arent meant to be game changers, they are average or below average for their tier as they should be, but their credit income is substantially higher, they are fine.

I noticed on your profile you have never played a T34. Perhaps you should actually play a tank 50 games or so before you evaluate it.

I was suggesting an 88mm because they fire faster. But I would like a 128mm option as well. I mostly would like a better engine. Adding an extra consumable/equipment slot is not a real game changer but would make a nice addition to premium tank lines.

I am not a huge fan of adding equipment slots, but i kinda like your idea of being able to have options with your tier 8 premiums gun...

as long as those options are thought of as downgrades, like an 88 instead of the 105 on the Lowe.
