    Don't flame me to bad but this is a good idea of what our cars could look like lowered on 20's. It's a Chevy, but everyone loved this look no matter what their favorite brand was. I got compliments from all

    As always i am looking to get an actual head count of members who are serious about making this a reality!

    The wheels will be 20x9, or 20x10 depending on what is wanted, also a possibility is there to do forged or cast, but i can tell you right now a forged wheel will be very exspensive!

    I have included a poll with options, so let me know what yall think. Also the wheels will be chrome.
    I would LOVE a set of 20" Marauder wheels! Chrome would not be my first choice, I would perfer Polished/powder coat like the factorys. But as long as it is high quality chrome like on DUB's or real Saleen rims it would be OK.
    So when can I buy mine in size 20x9?

    There was never enough interest in this, so it never made it to a production point.

    All bullsh@t aside...maybe we should have hit up the Crown Vic and Grand Marquis boys on this to help get the numbers up? I know the clone thing is a taboo to alot of folks around here but there is more of them than us and not everybody is interested in cloning...some would probably just like the option of having a bigger cool looking wheel.

    The price is crazy, but do they have to be forged?

    Was hoping to see this photo, but it's no longer up?? I'm contemplating lowering my car, but even so, the front wheel arch still seems to swallow up the stock 18s. (I have widened rims out back)

    Agreed! The front tires don't fill the front to back of the wheel well as they should, so even if you lower them, that dimension doesn't really change.

    Would these come with larger godshead center caps? I was not able to use the originals on the 20's I have and think it needs them.

    I'd think they won't be able to go much larger due to the lugs getting in the way.

    That is a very cool look, and there is a lot bigger selection of tires available is 20" to choose from.
    2003 Marauder... the gentleman's hot rod.

    You know what I like best about most people? Their dogs.

    Not a flame, The CV guys generally don't want to spend this much on wheels.


    I am in for a set or two!
