I just got my MTRs on MB72s yesterday. I can't wait to mount them, they look so bad ass.

Thank you Wyatt from DTD. Top notch service!

Ah, bummer, thats no good. I don't think you've had them very long... I'd recommend calling our customer care department. Your wheels have a 1 year finish warranty. Look them over closely. Rocks and road debris can chip up any wheel and chips in your wheels paint can lead to pealing. Also, road salts and chemicals used in the winter are really bad for your wheels finish. If your state uses these things you need to make sure you clean your wheels often in the winter.

In any event, if they are pealing give us a call. Your customer care agent will ask you to email some pictures and they should be able to determine if we can warranty them or not.

I ordered a set of MB72's on Monday. Thanks for starting this thread, without it I would have never known about them. TC was great and a pleasure to deal with. I will post some pics when they arrive. Thanks!

Hmmmm thanks for the reply! I guess the issue may be with salt and chemicals... I live in NJ and who knows what they dump on the streets to clear the snow!! I may just bed line the rims instead of having to go through all this again in a year... Has anyone done this yet? I can't imagine this being any different then if you where to bed line the stockers..

I haven't seen anyone bed line the MB72 but I'm sure it can be done. I've seen a few people on other sites plasti dip their wheels for the winter months. It seems to work pretty good.
