the old trucker:

   Sandybay how are the dummy tires holding up over time. Can you get a season outta them ??? How's the with & height of the tire compared to the proper tire ? 
   Lastly, how much do it cost to make a new axle for this style rim ?

                                                           Ot's rolling around again....

kpm:
hmm,,,if running bombardier tires(new),you should not have to be changing tires,not saying you cannot get a flat,just that it's rare,I've owned many bombardiers,and never encountered problems with new tires..

They are using 4.50/16 Bombardier tires on the crown vic rims. I have been trying to send a pic of the hubs that they had made to fit on the existing axle with the same original bearings. The rear tires on the 1976 are the split rims with solid rubber tire.

kpm:
solids are great,though you have to change up to the larger axle and bearings for the rear tires on the older models... to eliminate this alot of owners have gone to foam filled rear tires ,letting you use the original rim and bearings ect.
