We need one of these badly.

If you have OTHER THAN STOCK Wheels on your MM please post tire size, wheel size, and wheel make/model.

Post em up!!!

I'm looking for idea's and getting rid of the way to narrow 18x8's.

[a_d_a_m]

Why not just widen your 18x8s?

[FastMerc]

I see no need to change them ,they are custom enough!

[a_d_a_m]

I see no need to change them ,they are custom enough! +1, and I've yet to see anything better than the OE's! Guess I'm old fashioned.

+1, and I've yet to see anything better than the OE's! Guess I'm old fashioned.

yes that is true but lets keep this to strictly specs and type of wheels with pics, then maybe we can get it sticky-ed. this type of thing is done on other forums all the time .

id like to see them as well

[Blk Mamba]

I saw a set of wheels on a black charger the other day that I really liked, black, with machined lip, but couldn't catch up to him in traffic, if I see it again I'll chase him down.

I have American Racing Chrome "Rogue" wheels 18x8.5 + 25 rear and +35 in front using stock tires. Roush sells them as the RR05.

Refer to Post# 10.

Why not just widen your 18x8s?

For 250$ a wheel + shipping. I'd rather get different wheels that are not modified. Its not just the rears I have a problem with. I'd like to find an 18x9 front 18x10+ rear, or even 19's

If you like the stock wheels thats great. Lets try to keep this on topic. Post pics of Marauders with AFTERMARKET WHEELS AND SPECS.

Like Slayer said, These threads can work out great and be full of good info.

Freddie: Damn that looks good! got any bigger pics?

^^ Very nice! Thoes wheels look great in 20's

[ImpalaSlayer]

i liek them in 20s too, they look perfect. i dont like the little holes though

[jus4kix03MM]

slayer- i dont like the holes either but for the price I got them for I couldnt be picky.:D

[TooManyFords]

I was going to post pics of mine, but I'm sure you meant "wheels that fit the *rest* of the Marauders..."
:P

post up. i'll never get tired of looking at that beast

[Black_Out]

Never seen those on a Marauder, they look pretty sweet!

IMO (like everyone else) The best wheel for a Marauder is a Marauder wheel. If anything I would powder coat the stockers black for a different look.

AconvertedChevy's car looks even sicker in person! I love how the tire is completely flush with the fender. :bows:

Probably happening once winter is gone. NE winters are pretty bad and that's his dd. I don't want him calling me for rides cuz his mm won't move. Jk laird since u had to get me the other day. I owe ya

[J-MAN]

aconvertedchevy, nice wheels! Where did you get them at? How much clearance to the shocks on the back? Do you think 305's would fit? Really likin' the polished lip!

[AConvertedChevy]

Thanks!

I got them at crusinconceptswholesale.com for $1380 mounted &balanced.
There's surprisingly more clearance to the shocks then I expected. I think 305 would be about as big as I would try without modding stuff back there.

The only thing that I don't like about these rims is the added weight from stock. It is definately noticible, and thought it rides like its on rails I can feel it not being as quick in a straight line as it was with stock wheels.

[burtreynolds]

I love the foose nitrous wheels as well as AConvertedChevy.

I have been facing the dilemma of if I want to keep stock wheels or go something wider (I cant find anyone to widen my stock wheels, help?) but I just cant find anything other than factory that suits my personal taste/personality.

[JOEMERC]

I like the oem look,would not have the heart to paint these wheels black.

[Vortech347]

Bump it up!

[JBeezy]

I'm still stuck on stock wheels. Maybe some of these will look better without so much of a gap between the fenders and wheels.

Keep posting pics.

+1... Idk how it looks in person, but I was just thinking how good his wheel and tire setup look because of the tire and wheel being flush. Too often I see aftermarket wheels on cars that don't look "made" for the car. AconvertedChevy's do though. :up:

[69ranchero351c]

this was my GM right after i got it before paint and everything else. 18X9.5 with 275/35/18 and 18x10.5 with 335/30/18 rears drove it every day like that.

I like that look.

I have run the boss motorsports #328 since 2008. When i first installed them i caught alot of negative comments, because they are not marauder wheels. Since than i have had alot of positive comments that my wheels look good. I switched because i wanted a chrome wheel but i liked the look of the marauder stock wheel this wheel filled the requirement

Those look Great !,,,,I wish you could go to a store and try them on like you do a pair of shoes !!,,,My choice would be a set of Foose Legends with at least a 2 inch flat outer lip, I don't know if that offset would work but whatever I would change too would have to have some depth

[ctrlraven]

My winter setup. Don't really have any good side shots but I really liked the look it gave the car. Ran 235/50 on the front and 255/55 on the rear.
