Big Al Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 I'm going to go to a tow lot that has one with a set of rims on it that I want. Unfortunately the car HAS to be towable so they'll need replacement rims as well as whatever cash they ask for for the rims. So I need cheap generic rims to put on the car in place of the ones on it. Anyone know what car(s) have the same bolt pattern so I can get a set from PNP and pick up the rims I found? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-O Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) Steelies off a Grand Marquis or Crown Victoria will fit. Ford Ranger wheels of almost every vintage will fit as well. Shouldn't rub in either case. Also, anything off a Jeep. I had a set of 15" Jeep steels holding up my Starion for a bit, fit fine.

Big Al Posted March 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Awesome. I'm not worried about rubbing just as long as the towing company can move it if they need to. It's currently in use as a ram deterent against a fence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted March 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Pretty much. It's at an impound lot and they use junk cars to keep people from charging through the fence to get their impounded cars out or steal what's there. But this one in there is a flatty that has the rarer rims and I'd like to see how they look on my car. If I don't like it I'll probably find someone that does like them and pass 'em along.

v8starion Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Also, anything off a Jeep. I had a set of 15" Jeep steels holding up my Starion for a bit, fit fine.

Perhaps someone wants info on the whole car. Considering it's a five lug flatty, which makes it a rare 85.5 model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted March 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 It's in BAD shape. There's likely no saving this one. All windows have been busted out, the passengers mirror is destroyed, the engine is in pieces, and the floorboards are a swimming pool last I looked. If it weren't so badly beat I'd try to get the whole car but as it is I'm just interested in a few pieces that may still be salvageable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
