The MB Battle // CST Zero 1 Thread

Early in the 21st century the MB Battle rose to fame as the true work horse of the import community. For the first (and last) time in history, there was actually a wheel worth buying from Discount Tire.

While it's been argued whether Battles are relabeled Zero 1s or if they are clones - who gives a shit. There are a lot worse ways to spend $500 on a car.

Typically found in 17 x 9.5 and 18 x 9.5 in both +15 and +23 offsets.

This thread is for everyone's favorite seven spoke hero.

Too bad battles are the most generic and gaudy wheels you can buy. "but sizing bro"

Rather take some rotas over battles.

Which I believe is the same thing as a Drag DR-33. Both suck because of the the 7" width and +40/42 offsets. Benign flat faced instead of sexy curved is just the nail in the concrete over the tomb.

Agreed. P45R > Battles, IMO. But Battle are like $40 per wheel cheaper, sooooo.... Meh.

Nah bro, sorry. Battles aren't bad. But Rota's LMGT4 reps look perfect on any Nissan with the right stance, IMO. To me, there's no shame in rocking a replica of a wheel that is no longer in production.

Always been a fan of the polished battles. Just never had the patience to do mine back when I had them.

Yeah...

Sending them out for Chrome is ~$150 a wheel and Polishing is $250.

They owner of the yellow Lexus did his one his own. There is a right up out there.

Hmmm... An XXR/Rota fitment thread? I predict a turnout of 20% decent & 80% utter crap. But I could be wrong?
