#40 of 41 Nice Rims Or Original. by cobrass Oct 22, 2008 (5:58 pm)
I have a grand marquis 1996 LS The Optional one with the nice rims (Grilled) screen shape. and I was wondering if I can get something as nice as those for winter, I don't want to rowan them in salt The tire says P225/60/16 I think. The bolt pattern is not common so Canadian tire dose not carry any Alloy rims for it Unfortunately. I'm going to contact the dealership for similar ones to see if they still have them. Any suggestions/recommendations? I don't want to spend a whole lots of money and at the same time I don't want to order/ship from outside. Thanks alot sam,

Best tires I have found are toyo touring 800 ultras. I'm running 225/75r15 on aftermarket saltflat wheels. They have good noise reduction and so much traction on dry pavement I can't burn the tires at all unless I'm going around a corner. If you want to go american, BFgoodrich or mickey thompson all the way. If you want your car to do CRAZY things around corners thicker stabilizer bars, Bilstein or eibach springs, kyb gas-a-just shocks, neg-roll control arms and a set of falken blades will do the trick. My project is a maroon '90 CV with 54x18.5in boggers and a 24in lift though. I will post pictures as I go.
