How come it seems there are not many aftermarket options for our cars, I have been looking for a Cragar style 5 bar in a 20" or 22" I like my factory wheels but some of the clear seems to have peeled off on the rears. Ijust seems that there isn't much with our offset.

Cragar wheels are just those plain looking steel ones?

Why not have it repolished and repowder coated or if it comes out to play in only nice weather do chrome/black chrome. Hell, get the rears widened too while you're at it.

Yeah I just google'd them and they look pretty cool...IMO I think our cars are too big to pull it off but thats just my $.02. Wagon wheels FTW!

its only 2" bigger and would still be able to put the smaller front tire than the rear. Wouldn't be opposed to 22s but would rather do 20's. @TAKEDOWN still haven't ruled it out but would like to see an SB with black chrome, seems like they'd look smaller in black.

Yup, too bad there isn't a larger version of our rims on the market because I'd be all over it and 22inch rims are too big for me, i'd still want the performance vs. looks!

I would love a 20' set of the same wheel they would look sick.

Yes becasue they're so much bigger than the 18's that they come with.

20' sounds a little too much. But I do agree, 20" rims would fill in the wheel well more and look better.

But w/ 20" rims, we'd be running a tire w/ a smaller sidewall which brings in a whole bunch of other issues IMHO loud2004marquis.

would love to see the "Cragar" style wheels on a MM... I think someone else on a posts stated too big of car to look good... I wanna be the judge...

I still have to look at several of the Asanti rims.... I usually get over it when I see numbers beside them and I think, for all 4 not bad, but WTF thats for one 1, seriously.......
