mb battle's...aka work xd7 knockoffs - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

lost_generation · 03-07-2008, 12:22 PM

alright... sence everyone loves great fitment... but cheap prices, once again mb motoring came out with a design.. very similar to the CST's as you can tell...

17x9.5 +15 sounds damn good to me, i just wanted to post this up because of the price... 150 a piece

other sizes are 18x9.5 +23 and 180 a piece...

discount tire has them, order while they last

LB.Motoring · 03-07-2008, 12:31 PM

Uhhhhhhhhh

what? Sales

Why.

No.

Those look more like "whats it called" anyways.... Scratching my brain.

DUFFM4N · 03-07-2008, 12:34 PM

i hate knock offs

DOOK · 03-07-2008, 12:36 PM

well it's either works xt7 or xd9, never made an xd7... and no... those are a knockoff of the motegi mr7s

Matej · 03-07-2008, 12:36 PM

Are there any 18" MB's that come in 4-lug?

*Sonic Motor* · 03-07-2008, 12:37 PM

is it concaved for the 15mm offset?
Looks like the CST wheels people were trying to sell last week for 1g.

Wait, looking at the size, design, and the fact that Atech supplies MB and CST...im pretty sure they are the same wheels haha

LB.Motoring · 03-07-2008, 12:38 PM

CST Zero-1 KNOCKIEZ

A Spec Products · 03-07-2008, 12:39 PM

Haha that's not a XT7 knockoff

XT7 looks totally different

Like Robina said, looks like CST

Thinner spokes, tapers toward edge

***FaLKoN240*** · 03-07-2008, 12:47 PM

Yeah, those totally look like CST wheels... Do we have any idea on the sizing yet?

240trainee · 03-07-2008, 12:51 PM

They are the same as CST's

not knock offs.

Ian · 03-07-2008, 12:53 PM

ugh, what a stupid thread

this has been known for a long time

the guy that posted above you said that Atech (MB japan counterpart) supplies CST.

Could it just be another appendage of Atech?

DOOK · 03-07-2008, 01:09 PM

motegi mr7

*Sonic Motor* · 03-07-2008, 01:19 PM

advan avs T7 IF anything....

Not work XT7

Nikeboy355 · 03-07-2008, 01:22 PM

And $30 off if you pick them up in Orange County... It's a promotion if you buy 4 wheels or 4 tires...

$570 plus tax makes it like $620 out the door...

That's cheap for wheels in that size... But they are ugly and you won't respect yourself or the car...

300hp owen · 03-07-2008, 01:25 PM

KONIG TANTRUM from 1990.

yuck.

thats a copy of an even older Advan, the Model 7, IIRC.

CSTs are knock offs of those Advans.

Looks like CSTs to me. Similar to how MB has some of the A-tech invetory, like their Erasers aka Weapons and such. Just a rebranding of wheels. I'd get them for drifting on. Good looking. Great fitment. And cheap. I wanted of CSTs to begin with. But since these are here, awesome.

worr20 · 03-07-2008, 02:03 PM

anyone know if its concave or just flat

95KA-Turbo · 03-07-2008, 02:05 PM

YESSSSSS!

Hopefully they'll release 18X9.5 +15s soon, this is awesome, no Japan shipping and super cheap!

good for track tho

SoSideways · 03-07-2008, 02:21 PM

I have no complains now either!

Am gonna pick up some for track.

Honestly, they're so cheap, I don't care if I dirt drop and take out a massive chunk of the lip of these wheels.

turbo2nr · 03-07-2008, 02:24 PM

can anyone confirm if they have concavity like the cst's? if they do im all up in there like swim wear...

SoSideways · 03-07-2008, 02:25 PM

Dude even if they didn't, they're still a bargain.

YES, I was going to say that. I used to rock some Tantrums on my sweet gen2 integra....*shudder*

turbo2nr · 03-07-2008, 02:33 PM

just called up discount tire rack..

no concavity, the guy went and checked the acutall rims.. but the sizes are still good tho.. so no cst knock offs

azndoc · 03-07-2008, 02:42 PM

Looks like they just got it from the same manufacture of CST and just renamed it. Which are knocked off of Advan T7. Whatever.

teamsprock · 03-07-2008, 02:47 PM

if these are not concave, can someone direct me to somewhere that I can order the CST wheel's that are concave? I saw a used set on the forum, but not sure where to get them new?

Are you 100% sure the guy knew what concave meant? Looking at the stock picture there has to be at least SOME concave. Whether or not it is as much as the CSTs is another story...I may have to demand some photos of the actual wheels from the side.

Ian · 03-07-2008, 03:59 PM

Think about this logically guys...

MB is a knockoff company that uses existing castings for wheels...

Look at the similarities:

-17" diameter
-9.5" wide
-+15 offset

something tells me they're the same thing
