Crown Vic Mesh on FB
Not sure if anyone else has done this yet but I grabbed a set of Crown Victoria HPP wheels for a good price and here are the results... Going to be completely refinishing them during the winter but they fit amazing. 16x7 with 0 offset running 205/45/16's

Looks great. I am planning on using the same wheels on my project that I unfortunately haven't touched in some time. I actually sold a set that I had for a while, and now have another set waiting for me to get off my ***.
I was a little worried about the offset but it looks perfect in that pic.
Do you have any more photos from different angles or distance?

The car has come up about a quarter inch since those photos. The shots of the back are how it's sitting now. Zero rub at all, the camber was mostly just to see how far I could tuck the front wheel, it's set a little less extreme now. Front I'm running Techno Toy Tuning front coilovers with 200lb springs on T3 camber plates and roll centre blocks with Tokico Illumina MR2 race inserts and a Re-Speed BBK with Turbo II calipers. Rear is a GSL-SE swap with Moser 5 bolt axles and Re-Speed coilovers on 150lb springs with Tokico Illumina shocks and Turbo II calipers. Car feels very planted, the entire setup is adjustable so I can raise it or lower it as I please and change the firmness of the shocks. The wheels feel like they were made for this chassis. I didn't even have to roll the fenders or anything, the only thing I had to do was run a 5mm spacer up front to clear the huge calipers.

You're correct, it's the Re-Speed brake kit but they don't make them anymore so I found a used rear kit and bought a re-made new kit for the front from KansasCityREPU. I started shaving the trim on the driver side, still have to finish the passenger side. It took like 8 hours to do so I'm being lazy haha
