Did you have any fitment issues on the front and what size tires did you go with? My turbo vert has Illuminas and Tein springs.

 

 

philstar nice FC. Love the corksport lip.
I remember seeing pics of your car with the 3 piece aero lip.
You still have it? Want to sell it?

 

I think the tire size was 195/50.. I did have to use a 8mm spacer on the front but I had kei office coilovers to..

 

got rid of my vert from the first page, also repainted and repolished my wheels with rouge and threw them on a super clean coupe.

Im thinkin about running a 215 45 azenis. Good compromise to run front and rear?

 

what year crown vic did these rims come off of?

 

[/QUOTE]


Using the pics from an earlier post, I think the bottom style ran from '94-'97 and the top style from '98-'01. They came on the "sport" or "touring" models of both Crown Vic's and Grand Marquis. It's been a while since I looked at the years, but I know my set came off a '99 Grand Marquis.

 

cool! thanks for the info. just so happens i just picked up another set of the top style. think im gonna swap out the one below so they all match. oh yeah... scored the second set for 100$

 

right on thanks. the search begins

 

I gotta say, I love these vic rims. Really considering picking up a set after I get some coilovers... Where should I look for a set? ebay?

 

Look around any junkyards near you. You can get them cheaper that way.
You can also get them off a Lincoln Mark VII.
I have the Lincoln (LSC) mesh on my FC, cost me under $100 at the junkyard.

This is what the Mark VII looks like

 

Ahhhh, so nice! I tried so hard to get my grandpa to let me buy the wheels off of his Grand Marquise!

 

For those who have polished they're lips. What grit did you start with? I've used airplane stripper on the lips and am working the paint off the lips, but i've found under the paint is a serrated surface. I was using 320 grit but I'm thinking going to 150-200. What has everyone had success with?

 

So sexy!

 

eric vaughn machine: aluminum wheel widening and narrowing

I found this site after a search. This is what I want to do with mine when I get them.

 

+1 steves13b nice job. boogieonfunkyreggae looks real nice too.

 

 

Anyone selling a set? I'm interested!
