Does anybody know where I can buy these exact wheels? I've heard in other forums that they have been discontinued. I checked on EBAY and didn't see any there. I want to use them for winter and I don't like the new PI wheels.

They may not work as the offset is different.....................


I can get more details at work tomorrow(Mon)...............

They will fit but the offset is different. They will sit out farther than the original.

I used a set that size....and yes, they stick out just a tad. They did however work. And they work on my buddy's 300B.

Check your local wrecking/salvage yards. They are easy to refinish if they look foul. I found it MORE difficult to find the little center caps, and when I did, they cost MORE than the wheels!!!

Good luck.

The Tire rack has this pre 03 wheel for 49.00 each.

JL, what tire sizes have you considered to go with the steel wheels to get an approximate match to the MM originals? JB

If you want to go uneven size, then you could put 225/60/16 up front and 225/70/16 in back.

If someone knew how to reflash the PCM to calibrate the speedo, I would use the 225/60/16 size all the way around. With the MM wheels, I would use what is in the front or go custom with 245/45/18 (1 1/2" smaller in back).

Just my .02 here

I would use what most other Marauder owners are using... Artic Aplin 215/65-16 on the front and 225/70-16 on the rear. They're pretty close to the stock tire diameters. And I'm wishing I had them on there now, cause the snow is coming down like crazy at the moment. The Marauder still goes and it does better then my 3 previous vehicles (C5 Vette, Dakota R/T, Thunderbird SC). But when it snows it never hurts to have a bit more traction (and a bit more safety).
