Nostalgia Wheels offers several makes, including Boyd Coddington, in custom wheel size and application (you order the bolt pattern and back spacing, they make the wheel to fit your car). This one is 18x8 (it goes up to a 10" width in availability).

The Turbine, $444.95 each, not bad for custom made. The 10" wide wheel is only $366 each.

I like the 3rd one ("the Blaster") the best. I think it would look good on a Marauder. Whether or not it would look better than the stock mags? I dunno...I think I'd have to see it on the car. I also think that the first one looks too Ghetto, and would make the Marauder look like a pimp-mobile :puke: but that's simply my outspoken opinion........

Be careful when ordering custom wheels. They usually vary the backspacing by using a wider than stock drop center that can sometimes intefere with brake calipers. I learned this the hard way

Question: I know the difference between cast vs forged Aluminum - what is "Rotary Forged"? I've never heard of it.

It sounds like a combination of spinning and forging.

I think all these new wheels are UGLY. Hey, some of the best Ive seen in years are the stock wheels on the MM. Other nice new wheels are Torq Thrusts (an D's), those new Cragar SS wheels and those repro Keystone Klassics. I still like our MM wheels better on our cars and cant see why anybody would change them out.
