oxidated or painted is no concern to me

but i do not have my passport right now
and he will not ship them

so i am trying different avenues

Have you tried searching through the picture pages? There might be a member on here that has em

Why would get flammed? It's your truck, so what you do to it is your business. As long as it doesn't affect the safety of others on the road, GIV'R!!

I think I know what wheels you're talking about, I just can't find them

Those are factory 80's Town Car/ Crown Vic/ Grand Marquis wheels.

Saw a set today on a older ford that must've been 15x12 or more. Thing had at least 14" of tire all around...

cheese_man 03-15-2010 02:22 AM

those are the wheels

all i could find those in were 5 x 5.5 bolt spacing

are they for sale

silverstreak4x4 03-15-2010 07:55 AM

I cant find a full set. I am finding just a bunch of single wheels on ebay.

dixie_boysles 03-15-2010 09:40 AM

my uncle has some on his old 86 model Ranger.

cheese_man 03-15-2010 03:05 PM

ah! crap

cheese_man 03-19-2010 05:18 AM

these are my second choice

but i have found out that these in the 5 x 4.5 bolt pattern are very rare

TazDevil07 04-05-2010 04:20 PM
