You may have brake clearance issues...

You can put any RWD wheel on from 1980 to 2002.

A 15" inch wheel will NOT clear the brakes on Panther vehicles using the stock 16" wheels.

Just be sure to use 16" wheels or larger. Older 15's won't clear the brakes...

i though the 16" wheels were only optional???

I would like to make a correction,

Any 15 inch RWD wheel from 1980 to 1997 will fit on any Towncar.

In 98' they changed the brake calipers so 15 inch wheels won't fit.
