Anyone tried M&B wheels
Has anyone tried these wheels on our trucks? They are cheap and readily available since they are America's / Discoubt tires house brand.

Re: Anyone tried M&B wheels
I have a set of MB wheels (different design) that came on my Suburban. They seem to be holding up well, and I am sure, they are several years old. I needed to buy some centers and I tracked the wheel brand down to Discount Tire in California (Burb came from Ca.). I have the Razor wheels in all polished - now they are only available in a black and polished finish, so I know mine are older. They have some wheels for under a $100 per.

Re: Anyone tried M&B wheels
Not at all. The spoke is a different design all together. They are Discount Tire house brand and available in 2 different finishes. The only problem I see with them is they only offer them in 8.5 width.

Re: Anyone tried M&B wheels
They seem like a good cheap choice at only about $200 ea for 20's. I am probably going to try them out, so I'll post pics and info when I get them.

Re: Anyone tried M&B wheels
I have them on my 71 Cheyenne. The gun metal is easy to clean. The fronts are 18/8 and the rears are 20/8.5 with 1 1/4 wheel adapter.

Re: Anyone tried M&B wheels
Why did you have to use spacers? Did they not come in the right offset?

Re: Anyone tried M&B wheels
nice looking for sure, but I can get 338's for $180 a wheel for 20x8.5's worth looking at though, I do like the look though

Re: Anyone tried M&B wheels
I used the wheel adapters to space the rear out to the fender. They fit in the rear just fine I wanted to push the wheels out to look like they are 10'' wide. When I bought mine the 18's were $130 and the 20's were $165. They raised the prices since then. There are no fitment problems with the front rotor like the boss 338's.
