Tires: tire & wheels, ford crown victoria, mercury grand marquis


Question
I have a 99 grand marquis. In the snow I skidded and hit the curb and cracked my wheel rim and got a flat tire. Whole wheel has to be replaced. The tire is a P225 60R 16 Symerty tire. As I see it, I have a choice to either replace it from a Ford dealer & buy a tire else where, or scour the junk yards; or place an ad on Craigs list; or replace all four wheels. My question is do I have to get new tires too? What do I need to be on the lookout for? How do I compose an ad for Craigs list?

Answer
Hello, Pam
Sorry to here about your problem. Check out Ebay,  You can find all kinds of wheels there.  I bought a whole set of chevy wheels for less than a new one was going to cost me at the dealer. Check out the following
