Well, after my long quest for winter snow tires that will work properly on my car, i finally found them.
First off, if i were to get 18" winter tires. Im looking at $250 a tire!!!!!! Definatly not what im looking for. As far as steel wheels, most places couldnt even find the marauder for a part number that would fit, because stock is 18", they had nothing smaller.
Finally i go to town fair tire, they did about a half hour of research while i was there. They found that the 2003+ Crown Vic Police Interceptor rims are the only "smaller" winter wheel that will fit our cars. So i ended up getting 4 CVPI wheels, and 4 Toyo Observe Garrit HT high performace winter tires 225/60/16 for about $730 out the door. The tires were about $95 each while the wheels were about $60 each.
I hope this info will help out others in their quest to get winter tires on their cars!!
