So Ive been thinking about buying some new wheels for my 06 Crown Victoria PI.
I originally thought I wanted some mesh wheels, but I also think some American Racing or Cragar wheels would look as good or better.
Thoughts?

You can go to www.TireRack.com and see what they have to offer to fit a CV. Also, go checkout http://www.rimsntires.com/wheels.jsp to see a BUNCH of different wheels that you can checkout. A lot depends on your preferences. Some people like the old Torque-Thrust look (similar to the Bullit wheels on Mustangs). Some prefer all black while others prefer pure chrome.

Be sure to check out www.crownvic.net and see what others have put on. The biggest problem is getting wheels with the proper backspacing and offset that will FIT a CV, GM, or TC.

Go look up my garage and see the Niches I have on mine. I have a 1997 CV and use the same offset and backspace as the previous Mustangs. I prefer all BLACK, but the black/chrome seem to fit okay with the silver paint.

It's just a SUPER-DUTY Mustang GT Sedan. 198K miles and still rolling HARD.

1997 Crown Victoria P71 SVT *** ex-US Marshall service (the CAR)
STOCK?? I bet it was modified.

13.26 @ 107.24 MPH 1/4 mi w/ me, tools, & full tank of 93 octane

I added CAI, NICHE 19 X 8.5 " wheels with 245/45ZR 19 rubbers, and completely rebuilt the front end with poly bushings, Kooks headers, 2 1/4inch exhaust, TCI 2200-2400 rpm Stall converter

.PLANS:: engine upgrade, 5.4L 2v stroker, rebuild interior in leather w/ buckets, thinking about turbos

Nice car
I think I want some AR Outlaw II rims. Looked at them online and I like them A LOT (besides the pricing). I'm hoping to get them sometime within next year.
Thanks for the input!
