Mamba Wheels?

I am looking around to replace my AR wheels. These caught my eye but I have never heard of the brand. You folks have any knowledge or opinion on them. Spec wise they should fit well. For the 18"rim they show a 5.51" BS with a +12mm offset. Price wise they fit well in to my budget at $174 each including center caps. I am still in the shopping mode so any input pro or con is appreciated.

Re: Mamba Wheels?

I love the looks of Mamba Rims that I've seen on TireRack. I'm anxious to see a set on a Titan. Be sure to check backspacing etc so they'll be a good fit with fat meats.

Re: Mamba Wheels?

I would feel better about buying them if I knew more about their history. These days everyone is making stuff for each other. That or they are outright owned by a larger better known company. I haven't found anyone who owns a set and my attempts at researching the company has yielded only modest results. Anyone with more knowledge and experience than me (not hard) I could sure use a heads up. Thanks.

Re: Mamba Wheels?

These are my biggest concerns and so far I have found no answers.

Re: Mamba Wheels?

You can give them a call. From my understanding, I think they are a new company that was revealed at 2007 SEMA but you really should know alot more before you drop $.01 on them.
