Difference between Mickey Thompson Classic II and U.S. Wheels Baja 751
 

Hi, I need some help on this matter.
I want to buy the Classic II wheels from Mickey Thompson and my supplier
told me that the Baja 751 from US Wheels are the same wheels only with a
different brand...
From what that I saw in the Web, I think that there are at least some
differences in their appearance, but as I only saw images, I'm not realy
sure.
Please send me your opinion about that. I don't want to be botched, I want
to buy real Mickey Thompson wheels.

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Then go ahead and buy the Classic IIs.

Unless I knew 100% that they were the same wheels and there was a
significant cost savings, I would never buy the Bajas over the Classic
IIs. BTW - what is the warranty and load rating on those Bajas? Same
as MT? Can your dealer tell you?

The Classic IIs aren't exactly expensive wheels - around $115
depending on size. Just buy a set and you will feel good.
