    Marauder or LX Sport wheels?

    i was looking (more like drooling) at some lx sport wheels on ebay and then i also thought of marauder wheels. i know theres replica lx sport wheels, but does anyone make replica marauder wheels? if i do decide to go with marauder wheels i don't like the idea of my wallet getting raped lol



    or



    i like the marauder styled wheels because they have the ford racing centercap but the lx sport wheels can be had cheaper lol

    I dont know if anyone makes replica Maraurder wheels, but if you get them through a wheel refurbisher you can get them cheap. I found some for $175 each, but they only had 1 in stock. This was through a wholesale account. If you know someone that works at a tire store taht might be able to get them id look into that. Remember that you will need a few hundred dollars in spacers to get those wheels to work properly.

    Personally i like the LX sport wheels better ( i think they are about the nicest wheel made today), im a bigger fan of the machined aluminum as opposed to the chrome.

        Hell yes! A cold raw piece of metal just gives the image that I like. Chrome is more show than go.

          02 lx sport wheels are not a direct fit, at least not the reproduction ones. Center caps hit the hubs on the front. I have some in the house. Saving for spacers and tires. They look kick ass sitting up there though on the car. Id go lx sport.
