Goto the bottom of the page.

There is still a problem finding tires tall enough for the back. Anybody else know of any? (Wider tires for th back that is)

I know, not the prettiest thing. But for $695 a set, you could have the paint removed and polish them.

I emailed these guys a while back and challenged weather they would fit a MM (or any 2003 Panther) and he admitted that they would not. Why he specifically says on the site that they will, I don't know. We do need 50mm positive offset (or close). 25.4mm = 1 inch so these (at 20 or 30mm offset) are will be about an inch too far outboard.

That's kind of what I thought. I hit at least 10 custome wheel sites and have asked for fitments on our MM, any fitment! the answer is always the same. Not at this time, check back in a month or two.

There has got to be wheels out there!!!!!

I would like it if Ford would offer the MM wheel in a 9" or 9.5" width. You could just get a pair for the back. Pirelli makes a 285/50/18 tire size, but it needs a 9.5" wheel to go on. This tire is the closest to our dia. I could find in a wider tire. I already tried to track the wheel suppilier down, all I got was the rights to this wheel design belong to Ford and thats all you need to know. (cuz I like our current whels and would like to be able to put a wider rear wheel on in preperations for forced induction)

Agreed, I will stay out of this post as I certainly can't control myself anylonger. I guess my passion to not screw up the MM with big wheels got the best of me.

Your wants and opinions need respect as well. :alone:

Just for the record, I have been searching high and low for "Aftermarket" wheels for my MM, this to preserve the "Stockers" for future value! and not to stick 20" wagon wheels on it, no I'm just looking for some nice 18"ers to stand in for the factory wheels.

But I would never malign some else if they want 26" wheels, to each his own.

there is a set of Marauder wheels on eBay with tires. The tires are all front size though
