Hows it goin out there peoples,
Just bought a 1989 Crown Victoria last night for 325$ at an auction in mint cond and looking around to see if anyone may know a good site to help find a set of nice rims to fit it. Nothing to fancy just give it a new look, but it seems like there isnt alotta rims that fit for it. Ive owned an 88 Linc TC since I got my licence and was wondering if they would be the same lug pattern since linc is a luxury ford ( i think). If i would get any help at all it would be wonderful of u guys and gals.
Thanks again,
Rusty:icon16:

well if you are going to stick with the stock size it is 15x6.5 but 15x7 will work also. And the bolt pattern is 5x114.3mm. and the off set is +20mm. If you want to go with a bigger size let me know? as for sites I like to use www.tire.com but when you look up by car you have to use a grand marquis instead of the crown vic or you will not get anything, Also http://superbuytires.com/ has some good rims too for cheap prices.

Ok well you will need a 16x7 or 16x7.5 with +20mm offset and the recommanded tire size for those rims would be a 225/60 R16. For the 17 you need a 17x7.5 or 17x8 with +20 offset and the recommanded tire size is 245/45 R17. Now on the tire sizes you can go bigger but those are what I would choose for those size rims. and as for the wire wheels the second site I gave you has them for around $99 each for the 15x7 rims.
