I think the only problem with 4x4AG is that I read they have a hard time keeping them in stock. not that I can blame them, they're kickass wheels and I want some too

I didn't see them on their site either but if you do a search on any search engine you should be able to pull one up. Or better yet do a search on this forum and it will give you all the messages with mach 5 in them and I know one of them has a pic. Was quoted at 210 a piece from 4x4ag so I'll be ordering some soon. They do have to order them in but they can get them in. There are a variety of sizes (15", 16" and 17")

Matt Lee off road are the people that make them: http://www.mjloffroad.co.uk/prodwhee.html

Might be worth asking how much to supply to the US, its not particulary complex

They will also make custom backspace to order as well, and beadlock rims. I'm getting some custom ones in the near future to cator for my 33.11.50 tyres and still provide FULL steering lock even with the stops wound all the way in!



If you can get them Zinctech coated (on the left) they won't neet painting either.

THX for finding these.

Unfortunately, it appears they are for Disco I, we have a Disco II. They appear to be a great wheel.

Yeah, but when you add in the freight to the US, it does get pretty damn expensive.. that's why using someone like 4x4ag.com for individual orders (one set of 5), who run a shipping container back and forth regularly, is generally cheaper and easier in the long run.

I know they look cool and all, but $840 for 4 wheels before shipping or tax?? A used set of LR alloys and a rear locker might be a lot more useful.

They look pretty badass. I wonder how much the weigh, probably not too bad on the scale.

But like what was mentioned before, the price is pretty steep. I mean, wheels are a very important aspect of making a vehicle go, but 840 bucks can be used for many other things, such as off road tires and a locker.

You get what you pay for. The M5 wheels are the ONLY avaliable wheel you can purchase with custom back-spacing in a hub centric wheel. They come in almost every size, too I.E. 16x7, 16x8, 16x10, 15x7, 15x8, 15x10, etc.......

You can also get them with beadlocks.

210.00 a wheel sounds like a lot, but that is what you have to pay for that quality of a wheel.

I agree they are high quality, just saying why pay for a 16x7 or 16x8 when LR alloys are 200 a set used. For other sizes it makes more sense I guess, beadlocks? just run bias swampers
