ugh

yuck.

[wheresthaboost?]

I guess if your into mesh theyre alright.. :cool:

[kuramaya]

try them out and see if you like them. Just make sure that ford symbol is not on them.

[!Zar!]

This thread serves no purpose.

Please don't tell me you converted to five lug just to toss some nasty ass mesh on there.

[Ninjabread]

I was just going to say the same thing... you went 5lug for crown vic wheels? weak.

[20 til 3]

i already have 5 lug on my s13 w/ skyline wheels, but i'm getting a s14 and want to keep the skyline wheels and the SE wheels(drift backups) and i can throw these on there and they'll look really good still...and yes i'll have a nissan emblem put on the center, or take it out

[Ninjabread]

Eh, I say don't waste your money. Get another pair of s14 se's and be happy.

[lilredstiffy]

your friend is an asshole if he is going to charge you 'a couple hundred' for crown vic wheels

should be like $20 a wheel max

[downshift_sideways]

lols I was gonna say the same hahaha!/\

['90RPS13]

^~~ Yeah, Junkyard is asking like $20-40 a wheel. nice friend. BTW, I would just get some S14 SE Wheels or save. *a

[Phlip]

Do it.

... if you can get them for no more than 100.00 for the set, 100 ONLY if it includes serviceable tires.

... and what in the blue fuck is a "silforty"?

[aznxplayer]

give him 20 bucks for the set

['90RPS13]

Well when he answers what a Sil40 is. Can you explain a Blue Fuck? lol, j/k Phlip. *a

[stampede_dude]

A SilForty is the American name for a SilEighty, since a 240sx isn't a true 180sx, only because of the badging and a few minor things though.

['90RPS13]

Thank You. Very Glad you could clear that up. That whole thing flew right clear over your head. I know what a Sil40 is. Enough bickering. What part of NC ya from? *a

[jrocslider]

ok bottom line

your buddy is not your buddy
those wheels are disgusting
"rocking" them on your "silforty" would not look "tight"

[Matt Cramer]

Regardless of the looks, it's also worth noting that the Crown Vic wheels have a lot less offset than 240 wheels. They run something like 1/2" (12 mm offset), not the large offset you'd see on a 240.

[Farzam]

Get em if you can talk them down...alot.
Try em out, see if you like teh offset.
Take off centercaps. Burn centercaps.

what?
ummm that'd be a good thing if you're referring to OE 240 wheels cause those hoes are sunk.

w/e. they be ugly

[Midori]

Why do you car about other peoples opinions. Its your car make it how you like it. If you like the wheels put it on, they either look good or they don't.

[S14DB]

Get some late model Mustang wheels if you want to go the Ford route.

[jy116]

do it bro! I'd do it if I could find some for cheap [~$200 w/ tires?]. Who cares who made it. I trust FORD more than Rota... or other crap out there! Ppl gota stop hating on brands and fashion and think practically. Good offset, decent mesh, bolts rite on, and if the price is decent, then go for it! I got a set of GT rims for $70 w/ tires. Ones dented but holds air fine. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v142/jy116/1111061320a.jpg

I also had some Chrysler 300C rims on the rear, but ppl said its 115mm, so not good to leave on for long time or see high stress (i.e. track).

Anyone got a 300C or Magnum who wants a spare set? $250, with upgraded tires, 235/50/17s! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v142/jy116/0923062042.jpg

[20 til 3]

well i could get them for 150 bucks...and they look just like friggin the 15" 400$ ones that people buy up just like that, seriously you guys sit here and hate when your rockin oem wheels or w/e

they'll look good, i'll be putting them this weekend

[shane_lxi]

rbmotoring.com Check them out. Get some jdm goodness for that amount of money. I've always thought about what those crown vic wheels would look like on an s13 though, lol. They'd make great track wheels at the very least, for $150 w/ tires, I'd pick them up if I was 5 lug. Nice and light too.
