They are on ebay for $1399 for the set with tires. They are 20". I think they would look great on a marauder.

[03Farmmarauder]

I would go with stock!!!!;)

[FormulaMarauder]

there is a rediculous amount of photochop in that there pic. :shake:

[Raudermaster]

+1 with Formula. Ask us how we know.

[Hacklemerc]

Okay.. I'll bite... how do you know??

[Raudermaster]

A little trick I learned back in Highschool from a buddy. If you save the pic and open it in Notepad, as soon as you see "Adobe Photoshop" in it, it's fake. In this case CS2 was used.

[OneBADLsE]

My question is, who cares if its fake? Still looks hot

[Raudermaster]

The point is the guy lied in the ad, depicting they're for a Crown Victoria, when they're 'chopped on.

shouldn't someone report the ad to ebay?

and isn't it possible the file was resized using photoshop, and then saved?

I was thinking that was a very good chop, until i noticed the width of the front tire, or the fact it seems to disappear.

[Raudermaster]

Even if you resize something in Photoshop, that wouldn't come up in Notepad with the name, if all you used it for was to resize. It means it was altered.

[hdwrenchtx]

i dont think it looks all that great... but then again I am one of those that thinks as soon as you put aftermarket rims on a marauder it becomes "just another grand marquis with rims"

:beer:

[TKde0]

Photoshop could have been used to add the text. The lighting looks correct on the wheels and it's even reflecting some blue from the car.

I believe you.;)

But then again I use CS2 and Capture NX.


I personally like the wheels a lot, and I think this is the point someone was trying to make.

I'm actually going to agree. i really like them

[Joe Walsh]

They look like they are actually mounted on that CV....If not, that is a hell of a GOOD Photochop.

If you could get them with a gloss black center section....:hmmm:

[Raudermaster]

I never said I didn't like them, they fit the car very well.

[CROWNMARAUDER]

They also have them for sale in chrome for $1599. I agree that black would look great.

I have bought stuff from that seller on ebay with no problems, also sells pretty much only OEM FORD parts.

[Raudermaster]

ROFL, that picture is also fake. Is there anything this guy sells that's an actual real picture?

[quota]

Besides the "photoshop" comments, these wheels look nice. Not for a MM, though. Perhaps they could look even nicer if the center was painted black.

:confused: That "picture" is a LINK it's not supposed to be anything but a LINK :rolleyes:

[stryker]

!!NO!! It Don't.


STRYKER. :burnout:

[CRUZTAKER]

STRYKER. :burnout:

Yo no entiendo español. Yo no le puedo oír. :tmi:


:P:P:P

[hot-rauder]

I'm actually going to agree. i really like them


then you can put them on your MM....wait. your truck:D :cuke:

i like the wheels, jus tnot for a MM. i dont think any rims look good on the MM except for stock ones.

[magindat]

I like those rims. But let me tell you from YEARS of experience.

Those rear rims in 20x10 would have to have an offset of +65 to +75. That just isn't made in 5x4.5 lug pattern. It's not. Not for the sport market and not for the SUV market and not for the mustang market. I have search high and low. Internet, local shops and local shops that do business on the internet from a HUGE ware house. It just isn't made. If it were, those rims in 20x10 and 18x8 would be on my car already - especially for that price.

The pic is a 'chop cuz that size doesn't exist. the 20x10's are a plus 50 and are either on a <2003 vic OR would stick out on a 2003+ Panther nearly an inch and the tire would rub the wheel well lip.

If these rims are REAL give me a link. I need them. No ebay. The Manufacturer's link with specs. No joke.

[xviperx26]

That is a 2001 Crown Vic!

The pic isn't a chop.. Those wheels would require a spacer.

[ImpalaSlayer]

nice vic viper, as for the wheels. i agree with adam

[offroadkarter]

They do look good on a CV, but i wouldnt trade mine for em.

Arent those off a shelby GT500? the old ones i mean.

[KillJoy]

Those would look bad on a MM.

JMNSHO......

Oooh, he just pwned all of you with this link.

I have seen these wheels in 20in on new body mustangs too. They also make them in full chrome.

[dreydin]

just zoom in. hes either really good at photoshopping or its real

[mikeymarauder33]

Real or fake, it does look very good. I do like the chrome godshead on the MM beter though.

[Aren Jay]

the tires look too small, are they 20's?

Rub a Dub Dub.

[magindat]

If it's a 2001 Vic, they could very well be real. However, my point is still valid and there is no 'ownership', youngblood. The wheel offset changed for 2003.

I challenge you to find a 20x10 rim with 5x4.5 pattern and 75mm offset for under $500, not custom made. Then, you can talk 'owned'. Punk.

This wheel is shown, but they haven't listed it in their catalog yet. I emailed them to send me the specs, it's called the Cobra 3.

Oh well... If they spec'd out to +65 to +75 on 10" wide I coulda used them....

As it is I have already had my AFTERMARKET wheels widened!!!
