Yeah, me too. The site does not have them on the wheel selector but if you go to see what fits WITHOUT the on the car shot then they are there. I really like themDidn't have them in the seletion for me to put them on your car. I'm not really feeling them ayway. I kinda like the GT500 wheels too though. Classy, yet tells people you've got a little muscle under the hood.

Screw wheels..buy a vortech.
FIRST PLACE
From the outside, Scott Levine's Mark VIII looks like a nice Lincoln with sporty Steeda Ultra-Lite wheels on it. Closer inspection reveals a rollbar inside, but it's under the hood where you'll find a Sean Hyland-built four-valve with a Vortech JT-trim supercharger.
At our shootout, Scott was trying some new programs that were to relieve him of the factory rev limiter, but the car didn't care much for the tune up, so Scott resorted to the old program, which left him riding the rev limiter for the last few hundred feet of the track.
Regardless, he still turned the fastest time of the day, and the new manual valvebody transmission he installed did the trick, as the automatic box previously liked to shift into overdrive without permission. A proper burnout offered some much needed traction out of the hole, which improved his elapsed time further.
Scott's considering going to a F.A.S.T. system to really get a handle on the electronics and once that's accomplished, the Mark should easily make over 700 hp to the wheels, and rather than shifting at 6,800 rpm, he will be able to shift at a more appropriate 7,500.

Red X > GearbangerI know you said they were on sale, but just so you know, they’re over half an inch shorter than stock....which will play funky with your speedometer.....and may look a little silly until you drop that thing a little?
