    Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.

    They are MKW M18. Everything was right except they were only 18mm offset. With the 285's, I had to adjust the rear cladding with a BFH and the torsion bars were cranked up. MKW do make this and other wheels that are 30mm but wrong center bore and they would not do a special order for it. Their web site is: http://www.mkwheel.com/

    I've seen this wheel before and was considering it. Sooo, what exactly did you have to do to get them on? What cladding was adjusted, front or rear and where particularly? What's a BFH and what did you do to what torsion bar? Mind me asking how much it was for the set?

    Sorry for all the questions.
    They do look nice!!
