Mmmmm wheel heaven :lol: I was looking on there and saw tons of wheels that were 18x9, 18x9.5 and 18x10. Would it be a wiser idea get another set of wheels as to perserve the value of the oems? Thoughts?

Chrome Shelby Mustang GT500 Wheel - 2005+ (18x9.5) has a 50mm offset

Y'all are gonna think I'm nuts, but I saw a Jeep SRT-8 the other day and though "those wheels would look on a Marauder"

They have kind of a 'chiseled' look to them. Almost weapon-like.

If you want to put your Marauder wheels up for safekeeping, the best deal out there is the replica Marauder wheels on e-bay. 699. a set, 80 bucks on shipping. Of course, you have to be open to a cast wheel, and lack of powdercoating, but it is the cheapest option, especially if you live in the snowbelt.

Other than that, shop freely for any 18" wheel for the '05-'06 Mustang, they will fit the Marauder's 50mm offset

iirc the rauder rims are a 06 option for the stangs right?

iirc the rauder rims are a 06 option for the stangs right? Can't say what spin Ford is adding to the Marauder wheel, but it is listed in the '06 catalogue as a wheel option for both '05 and '06 Mustangs.

So if I got new wheels they would need to be for the 05-06 with a 50mm offset? I thought 94-04 wheels worked fine on the MM?

Suspension changed in 2003.
Spindles were replaced with hubs, and the centerline was moved outboard.

Ahh good info to know now, thanks.

I saw my first new style Mustang Tuesday with the Marauder wheel on it. I didn't think that it looked nearly as good on the Mustang as it does on the Marauder. I've been tempted to find another set of wheels for the Marauder, but the wheels just MAKE this car.

They look a lot like the mustang saleen wheel,

Both are Saleen wheels, right? So, why should they look different between the Mustang and a Jeep?
