So ive been looking at wheels now for about 3 weeks and i cant seem to find anything that will work with my plans. I have a 00 crown vic that im doing up like a cop car. Im trying to find something that looks like a police wheel but in an 18" or even a 20" the bolt pattern is 5x114.3 and i need about +35 offset. here is a pic of a police wheel



anyone know of a wheel that will fit my application?

^ Those look good. Not enough backspacing though. 7" wide wheel needs minimum of 5.75" backspacing. 8" min. 6.75" backspacing, so on and so on.

well, there is the tundra wheel you looked into. and there is the 02+ dodge rams. some had base model wheels like that in 17s, maybe 18s. and the srt10 viper trucks have a 20" spare thats a steelie. you could probably go online and schmooze 4 dudes with those into giving you the spare real cheap. wait...nevermind, those are 5x5.5". uhh, try the 300/charger/magnums. im sure one of them has a wheel with a plastic hubcap that has a wheel similar to that under it. or the spare. crawl under a few. my buddy has a 300 SRT8, ill have him check the spare and see what it is.

also, maybe the spare from the lexus truck/suv things. same pattern, probably steel spare. probably a fullsize spare at that. things of that nature, and the spares would be your best route id think. i know one guy said he had a machine shop make him a steel center thats smooth and used the srt10 hoops to have a 20" smooth steelie.

The charger police cars have 18" steels. The problem is getting them.

yeah, forgot about those. im sure you could get ahold of a set from a cop car conversion place, or maybe chrysler. worth a shot right?
