MTVR Rims to a 900 series

[Thermonukelier]

Hello all! I am a newbee to this forum and would like to say hi. Actually this is my first forum at all, so forgive me if I respond incorrectly. Anyway, I have an M923A1 and an M925 both in exceptional shape. I have recently purchased several 395 85R20 tires on MTVR rims from GL. Not knowing much about the rims, I thought that they might fit. Obviously I was wrong! Doing a quick search here, I did not find to much info on them. So, the question is are these rims worth modifying or has anybody even tried playing with these rims to fit any M939s?

MTVR's do not use 395's. Post a picture of what you have. It will help us determain what you have, what they fit, and what they're worth.

I suspect you have mrap rims 10 bolt hole with a larger opening than your m939? If so, most likely a variety of mrap.

Yes you are right, I just checked my receipt and they are supposed to be MRAP rims. Not sure why I thought they were MTVR rims. Definately larger opening than the M939's. Sorry, just call me Mr.Toolbag. I will get pictures here tomorrow so you can see.

While this is for a deuce, I bet it can be done for a 10 bolt pattern.

The problem with the spacer plate option that I see is that the bolt spacing centers on the M939's are about the same size as the opening on these rims. So some cutting would need to be done on the rim, it would seem. But I have not yet measured them in detail.

I believe Vintage iron has adapter(s) for them to 5ton and maybe some other vendors on the classifieds.

Check with Matt @ Vintage as he has his email and phone # posted on the ad and has been very helpful to me.

Yeah, but from what I found on a thread is that the rims will need to be cut. But I guess that is what I am looking at doing. Or trade them for some other type of rim. Here is a picture of them. View attachment 409020
