About how much does one of those aluminum MRAP wheels with an adapter and run-flat and a tire weigh?

Thanks, but I didn't really have much of a choice. Would have been a lot easier if I'd wanted to run 395's, but options are pretty limited if you want to run smaller/narrower tires. If I hadn't already put in all that work and knew about those MRAP wheels, might have gone that route. Your...

Those MRAP wheels look like the hot setup. Very cool that you don't have to modify the wheels. Makes the whole deal a lot easier.

Nice work so far treeguy! Sure would be cool if those wheels were more widely available. Makes it so much easier not having to cut out the stock center-sections.

Well, with smaller trucks, it's generally accepted that it's desirable to have a little bit wider track-width up front. If the rear track-width is wider than the front, it tends to make trucks understeer. I'm basing this on what I know about desert race trucks and CORR-type short-track race trucks.

Oh, that's just an interesting pattern that you machined into them when you cut out the center-sections. Looks good.

Those look great. What kind of wheels did they start out as? How wide and what's the offset/backspacing?

Wow. Sorry to hear that. I hope you don't mind me asking, but was he mounting the tire, or just airing it up?

I'm pretty sure I've seen a few wheels with the plates mounted on the OUTSIDE face of the split where the two wheel halves bolt together, and then Donk's wheels are using deuce centers welded into the shell (which will obviously affect the backspacing). But otherwise, yeah. They should all be...

More info please. What are those wheels all about?
