Cool 15" wheels pic request

Wondering if theres people in the fc world on aftermarket 15" wheels. Almost anything thats a 7" wide or more, with coilovers or on lowering springs. Was looking at the enkei 92 but not many other wheels out there.

it looks alright. not bad at all, imo. i was worried as well since everyone and their dog runs 17+.
but i found these for a price that i could not refuse so figured why the hell not.

do i wish they were 16's? absolutely.
do i think that they look way too small? not at all.
while i know i'm pretty low, not extremely slammed, a smaller wheel allows you to go low. actually, it's gotta be fairly low in order for it to look decent! haha. oh plus tires are much cheaper
195/55's

the wheels you have on your car are already pretty similar to 92's anyways though. just not as tight a weave. plus they're 16's. i like 92's. but they're a pretty common wheel now that they've been remanufactured.
thought you were selling though?

I don't have my crown vics anymore, and since I'm on lowering springs I'm woundering if I can get away with good size 15s. I have vert wheels and its just boring and the offset sucks. If I got something like the 92s but they only come 15x7 with a 38 offset, I can put some spacers on to make it look better. Just figuring tire size

195/55. tein flex. i'd rather go with a 195/50 but i'd have to go a good amount lower to get rid of the fender gap. don't really wanna do that personally.

The wheels where originally off a 70's dodge from what I know .
Just polished the lips out and painted the centers

Here's a picture of my car with 15in Enkei 92s. I photoshopped it to make it lower though.
