Lightning wheels

Does anyone have or seen an Expy with Lightning wheels on it? I really like these wheels and am comtemplating putting them on mine. Any pics would be greatly appreciated.

219 for the 99-00 style, painted, 339, for chrome, for the 01-02 style 229, either would look VERY nice

I am actually trying to figure out what they look like. TireRack.com does show a pic with the wheels on it, but it is a 2D picture and looks like crap. Any actual fotos would be great.

A while back an L owner had a silver Expedition with Lightning wheels and it looked great. He also had the Lightning fascia painted to match.

If you can search, look for Wa2fst. He has the Silver Expy with Lighting front and wheels.

If you check out the ads in MM&FF, the going rate for the (real not copy) 97-99 wheels is $175. Lots of advertisers at this price.

Yea, I still get that magazine. I was really enjoying it while I owned my Stang. Now it is just down right depressing every month it shows up in my mailbox. I sure miss her, she was my favorite car. BUT, on the other hand...I would have never met all these Expy fanatics had I not gotten rid of her.

I have Lightning wheels (real, not copy) with Michelin Pilots 285/60/18 and Eibach lowering springs. Great combo.
I'll post a picture if someone can provide instructions in layman's terms. I have a scanner at the office I could use, but the rest is a big mystery.

When you click on "Reply" the next screen that comes up is the area to type your text. Down towards the bottom, there is an area to attach a file. Just select the file and hit"Submit". Hopefully that helps, I am really looking forward to see your ride.
