16 x 7, 5 x 4.50 don't buy the 7 oblong slotted ones. car-part.com. do you already have tires? if not then get the 17 x 7.5 offered 2006 and later. can not use 2002 or prior years, wrong offset

very few aftermarket wheels fit CV. you need a +40 to +50 offset. are thesecfor winter use or ?

The cragar rims do not fit..wrong offset.if you don't want to pay $100 for new, then go to craigslist or car-part.com and look for crown vic wheels 2003 and up. There has to be a crapload of decommissioned cv. taxis in NY
