Frequently Asked Questions
- What size tires does a Lincoln Town Car use?
- The Lincoln Town Car tire size varies by trim level and model year. Base trims typically use smaller wheels (16") while higher trims use 17" or 18" wheels. Check the breakdown below for your specific year and trim.
- What is the correct tire pressure for a Lincoln Town Car?
- Recommended tire pressure for the Lincoln Town Car is typically 32-36 PSI. The exact specification is on the sticker inside the driver's door jamb. Do NOT use the "max pressure" number on the tire sidewall.
- Can I put bigger tires on my Lincoln Town Car?
- You can typically go one size up in width (e.g., 215 to 225) without issues. Going up in diameter (e.g., 16" to 17") requires matching wheels and may affect speedometer accuracy. Extreme upsizing can cause rubbing and void warranty.
