MB wheels update???

For the people that have any kind of MB's how is the rim holding up. ??

Finish holding up?
scratch easy?

If you wheel them how are they holding up in the trail??






thanks
Marc

MB V-Drive Black/Silver.


They belong on the street. I've been off road several times since getting them. They are gettin' scratched up by heavy brush. Wouldn't be my first choice for a truck that goes off road.

But then again, I don't want my truck living the life of a mall crawler. I've got plenty of custom Sierra pin stripping down both sides and don't have 4K on the truck yet.

Doesn't bother me.

If it wasn't for the design of the Rockers. I would not buy them again. Even for $75.

The quality of the clear coat is sub par at best!

I have the Gunner 6's with the Anthracite Machined finish. Thy've held up pretty well, except for one of them that I burried in mud and spun the crap out of it. Still doesn't look too bad, just a little duller than the other three. If you gonna do any decent wheeling, I'd definately stay away from chrome. But that's JMO.

I'm not ignoring you! I've only had mine about a month, bought used and 2 months old from TJOPilot. Put about 3,000 miles on them, no complaints, but how much stock can you put in such a limited experience?

I also never been "wheeling", so I can't address that question.

Do they scratch easy? I'm not actually TRYING to discover the answer to that!

I liked the way they looked, even before I got a great deal on them. Guess you could say I bough them on faith. If you plan on putting your wheels through total hell, buy the ugliest things you can find.

Edit: Oops, forgot. MB Gunner 6 antracite.
