Cool! I notice that Ronal wheels can be ordered with custom paint on the rim. That's WAAAY cool as well.

Those are sharp but a little too close to stock for me.

I agree, but with the new Mustang having a similar offset our wheel choices are bound to get better.

The upside to the factory look is that you could mount some drag radials (or auto cross tires) on them and they wouldn't look bad with factory front wheels.:)

I would like to see something that has more of a deepdish design, where the spoke are not right out to the edge of the rim.
But that's just me.

I see no reason to swap out the stock rims for these.

Not as tough looking.
No god head.
Overall the same design (5-spoke)

Probably the one rim I'd like to see is an exact duplicate of the stock rims in a smaller size - so as to open up the tire options.

Or the exact same as stock in a "gunmetal" finish. (I have to put it in quotes since I've never seen a gun that's in what other products call a "gunmetal" finish)

Nice looking wheel!!!


Can you get them without the Ronal on the center?

I'm interested.

I had some Ronal wheels for my Camaro (car I replaced with the Marauder) and I was very impressed with the quality.

Sometimes I get to thinking that aftermarket wheels will allow me to have a wider tire selection.....
I like the black rim look.

That is some pretty sweet stuff....would give a good opportunity to put 4 of the same wheel on if you wanted....

I think a deepdish design would really slick! Maybe have these rims for the front tires, and then the same rim but in a 19" deepdish - that would be an knockout combo.

Nice But not Nicer then the Stock Rims. No Reason for Swap

An elegant, and delicate looking wheel. The effect will be more noticeable spoke rotation at street speeds. Something I like. But the brake mechanisms will be revealed more, meaning rusty old calipers and other components will not do. So a dress up of exposed brakes will be needed. The wheel assembly will protrude from the car's fender line giving the impression of a wider stance. OK, if your so inclined.

It stands to reason the price will be close to the stock wheels.

I like the wheel, but I wouldn't spend my money to give someone free advertising on my car. They should pay me if they want that stuff on there.

You can always have widened.

I agree. Nice but I wouldn't change from the stock wheels for them.

Are they cast, or forged?

After Seeing that Pic, I know for sure Im keeping my Factory Rolling Stock. Too Ricer Looking for me.

Those are great wheels ... just not on a Marauder. It is my opinion that the wheels are not beefy (it's the only adjective I could come up with) for the overall stance of the vehicle. My .02

I don't know I kind of like them and can see using them as a winter set and getting my stock ones widened

Nice looking but very close to stock. If there is not a choice of a wider rear then.....:down:

I see it has the same size tires all the way around. They are fine but not as good looking as the stock wheels.

Dennis,

Is it possible to get something like this with the correct offset for our Marauders?
18x9 would be nice:)
They wouldn't have to be that deep, the pic is used as a visual aid.

I love the style :) but would want them in regular chrome.
Hopefully somebody here will find the correct sizing for our cars, without them sticking out of the wheel wells.
