I own a 00 Lincoln Town Car and am trying to get my 13" wires on. I am having a problem trying to figure out how to get the front wheels to clear my brake caliber. I have added as much as 2 5/16 wheel spacers and they still rub.

Please help me figure this out. I dont want to have to sell these and get 14s. I was thinking I could grind down the caliber a little for clearance.

I live in Delaware and nobody thinks its a good idea for me to run with 13s so Im on my own with this one.

Please help and I will be eternally grateful

After you grind a little, they should fit.

swap spindles n front calipers to that of a 92,may have to swap a few front suspension pieces to,do it right and trust me u will lay low n not have to worry,lots of people grind down the calipers the way gabriel was saying and you can do that to but with the swap you can run 13s no problem and in the rear you may have to grind

Caliper grinding will give you problems with you brakes and rims. You will need to do a full spindal/caliper/rotor swap off a 92-93 towncar. Your brake line will also need to be custom flared on one end to swap from 92/93 to 99/00. If your not a mechanic or dont know anyone who is..... be prepared to pay a lot in labor.
Just keeping it real. Good luck!
