I have to get this out as I have had enough! I ordered this last winter my new wheels from my local tire dealer. I had them order me the MHT LLC Black. I really liked the wheel but not the price. I ordered 22x9 for the front and 22x10.5 for the rear. MHT took there time making them for me. They are a 3 peice forged with the center painted black. The best price I could find for them was on the internet for $1150 or $1175 each. My dealer could not match that price but was close at $1250. After coming to terms that you were going to drop a small fortune just for wheels I got excited to get them here.
The Spring Fling was approaching fast and we were on the phone alot with MHT trying to find out where the wheels were. We got the run around. They finally came in as we told them we were cancelling the order if I did not have them for the Spring FLing. They came in on the Wed. I was leaving town to head south to Portland, oregon to meet up with the convoy at 6am. Some buddies and myself were waiting when Mr. UPS man showed up with the wheels. We opened the first box and the wheel had a lot of bubbles in the paint. We looked closer and there was alot of dirt in the paint. The color sanding from MHT left alot of scratches as well. We were not impressed. We opened up the second box and the wheel had a huge machine gouge in it that painted over. Yes, there was these bubble again. It turns out that all 4 wheels had dirt in the paint and alot of scratches.
We called MHT right away. They said that this is the best they can do and we would have to live with it. They actually went as far to say that these were custom painted at a shop and that is why they would all turn out that way.If we ordered a different set they would turn out the same. I would think a company that sells the amount of wheels and wheels that cost this much would show more concern about the paint jobs. There is no customer service from MHT. They told the tire store I was being to picky. The tire store told them no, the wheels look like crap. MHT said they would replace the wheel with the gouge in it but not the others.
The tire store said I could run them to the Spring Fling and when I returned we pulled them off. MHT now said they would pay some of the money to get them repainted here in my town. I am not excited about having to have them repainted myself. I was billed for these at the end of Feb. Again, MHT says they do not care about that. I would warn all of you to think before buying MHT wheels. I am sure there are alot of you that have them and they turned out great. I am happy for you. I am not happy that MHT will not do anything about these wheels that look like crap.
Sorry for the long thread but had to vent on this.
