For the Fuel Trophy and Anza owners
 

Has anyone experienced any corrosion issues with the bolts and washers around the simulated bead lock? Does anyone run these wheels in the winter, any concerns with that?

I have had corrosion issues on my Anza's since day 1 after a rain fall. They are less than 2 mos old and getting worse. I'm currently talking to MHT/FUEL about possible resolutions, there seems to be a few options they have offered including changing out the wheels for the same or different ones. Before I make a decision on which way to go, I would appreciate any feedback on your personal experience.

No problems with my Fuel Anza wheels

Good know that plain old water isn't causing a problem for you as it is me. Any winter driving for you on them?

Not yet. I put them on in July.

Thanks.

Hopefully some more folks can chime in also in a little while.

Subscribed. I was planning on ordering Anzas so I am interested in how this turns out and responses from other owners.

Just spoke with the local MHT rep, he tells me there was an initial design mistake with these wheels and that they used to use just plain old painted/coated steel nuts and washers but that this issue surfaced in the past and now they use all stainless nuts and washers. I bought these wheels in August of this year and had them delivered and installed at the end of the month. Not sure how I ended up with a batch of the old ones, must have been sitting around somewhere before they shipped them to me. Now that I know this we should both be fine.

I guess the only question left unanswered is how do they hold up to winter? The MHT rep said he does not recommend these for winter use, reason being that salt and water can get behind the nuts and washers and start corrosion. With stainless hardware, I find that a little hard to believe entirely so I am super interested in hearing if any of you guys are running these in the winter and your personal experience.

Thanks again all. Still leaning towards staying with the Anzas.
