18" Vulcan
Standard
Would those fit on an LS? I like those a lot better than the '06 LS wheels... they kinda remind me of a Mustang.
Edit: And since the center caps or whatever look the same, would I be able to keep the Lincoln ones?

HyeLifeLS March 15th, 2006, 12:30 PM The Vulcan wheels are from Type-s R, so they are a lot wider in the back. If they fit on the LS they will look hella fine...
daves2000ls March 15th, 2006, 04:57 PM theyre wider in the back?
SoonerLS March 15th, 2006, 07:55 PM Yep; the S-Type R has 245/40-18 up front and 275/35-18 in the back. That's almost 2" wider than the LS's stock tires, so the rear wheel's probably going to be around 9.5" wide...

So basically they won't fit? :(

thats badass, i was looking to get staggered wheels that are the same diameter
daves2000ls March 16th, 2006, 11:51 AM i checked ebay and didnt find any vulcans, where do you find them and how much are they
lexmarkz00 March 17th, 2006, 06:17 AM I'm assuming you'd just go to a Jag dealer and order them?
SoonerLS March 17th, 2006, 11:24 AM They should
I remember reading that 9.5" wide wheels have clearance problems in the rear. The LS and S-Type have similar rear suspensions, but, IIRC, they use some different components, and there's no telling what the R fellows have done back there.
If they do fit, though, those would be some sweet wheels!

When I bought my wheels from the Tire Rack, I was going to go with the Jag Size wheels. They advised against it because I had lowered my LS 1" and they had trouble with wide wheels on the rear of some LSs. Since I was too far away to check the fit before I made the purchase, I went with the 8" wheels. Someday I would like to try 9.5" on the rear, but they cost too much to guess.:)
