Has anyone put slicer rims on a 3rd Gen?

[madsho97]

I'm thinking of puttting a set of slicer rims on my '97 for winter tires.

I've been told that they will fit, but has anyone ever seen them on a 3rd Gen or have any pics of them?

Thanks.

They look great to boot.

I found a thread by searching "3rd gen slicers" but the pics don't come up. I remember when the thread was posted and I thought the looked really sharp. Just remember that slicers are 6" wide so if you're running the factory 225 width they'll have a little more sidewall bulge than they do on the Gen 3 wheels that are 6.5" wide.

I'm using 215/60/16 Blizzaks on my Gen 3 factory wheels and the size is great, I'd recommend that size for a slicer.

Slicers will fit on the 3rd gen. They look really sharp to.

Silvapain uses them for winter. Look good on a silver car.

Found this on the net ... but the rear wheel is slicing the wrong direction

Looks weird on a sable

I used to run them in the winter as well. They fit fine.

I think slicers look weird in general.. I need more see thru action.

BAM!

 

[DaSho97]

BAM!

That looks so freaking sweet.

 

[Silvapain]

It looks even better now that it's lowered.

Wow, they look really classy on a silver car.

Not too sure if they'll look that good on a black one. Maybe because that one's a Sable though. Looks like I'll just have to give it a shot.

Since the wheels are silver, they look good on a silver car, and I would imagine that the white ones would look good on a white Gen3 as well.
There is a Gen3 Sable running around here that has the SHO chrome wheels on it, I am wondering if the SHO chromies were an optional wheel for the Sable?

No, chromies were SHO-only. The 99 SHO rims were available on the upper trimmed Taurus SE, though.

You could request the chrome ones from the dealer...there are about 5-6 sables and taurus' runnin around here with em on.

That's so you can slice in both forward and reverse.

Update:

I bought a set for 100 bucks. No tires yet though, and as such they aren't on the car.
But when I get some cash for tires I'll get 'em on the SHO.
