this is just a head up to let every one know about them
i just got off the phone with discount and

they are no longer going to be making 18x9.5 +15

and currently of all discount warehouses they have 82 wheels left of 17x9.5 +15

jrocslider · 01-15-2009, 04:29 PM

my brother just shattered his 18x9.5+15. you have probably seen his white coupe before. i just spoke to discount tire about an hour ago and they said they will be getting a new shipment in the beginning of march.

its cool. i thought it was another company who produced them than supplied them to Mb and CST? i cant remember the name at the moment. i read something like that in one of the old MB Battle threads. the guy i talked to at the Discount Tire at the Forum didnt really know what he was talking about.

i was told that they wont get them again also - by dtd.

I'm basically forced to buy the 17x9.5s to drift on.

FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I wanted 18x9.5 damnit.

jrocslider · 01-16-2009, 08:46 AM

I believe it. I had a set of these and never hit more than a small bump in the road. the next time i went to discount tire the two front ones were fucked... one was cracked and the other was bent. I complained enough and they bought me a set of FN01-RC's for the crappiness of the MB Battles. They're nice looking rims though!

420sx · 01-16-2009, 08:51 AM

20 mph?? was that like a 3 foot pothole/drop off?? lol

YoungGun · 01-16-2009, 09:02 AM

No way i've dirt dropped my battles and then right into and up a rumble strip at about 30.

It only dented the wheel and it still holds air.

Also I checked americas tire and they have 18x8.5? WTF

OBEEWON · 01-16-2009, 09:07 AM

MB's are made by Milton Bradley. 1 2 3 esplode. At least Rota's just bend lol.

turbo2nr · 01-16-2009, 09:09 AM

i live in nyc and i hit potholes with a stretched tire doing 60+mph and i got no bends or scratches on my battles, homeboy had do hit some thing hard to destroy the wheel like that..

OBEEWON · 01-16-2009, 09:20 AM

He ran over my fist.

zaquanh · 01-16-2009, 09:39 AM

hahaha wow tha pics in here are crazy lmao that was not a curb at 20mph , no way

and yea discount has one 18x9.5 +15 left if u want it , call the 1800 number but i wasnt guna buy it lol wtf am i guna do wit one cool wheel lmao

and cst and mb are 2 diffrent wheels both knock offs, lets not make this into the cst vs mb thread tho lol

im not sure if they are still making cst's

i saw some on ebay but the guy wanted to much , they was 17x9.5 +15 , so for the cost , might as well get mb's

TheRonTom31 · 01-16-2009, 09:51 AM

FNs were overshadowed by the Failmax 962, don't have to worry about FNs anymore. Not to mention FNs actually had decent sizes and fitment.

allntrlundrgrnd · 01-16-2009, 10:30 AM

sucks i wanted these whenever i got around to 5-lug

OBEEWON · 01-16-2009, 10:36 AM

Rota is king.

SoSideways · 01-16-2009, 10:40 AM

There are way too many different stories in regards to the Battles.

I wish they would just come out and say "we're getting more" or "we aren't getting more" and be done with it.
