Default Anyone have these new wheels on thier Myco

Myco has new wheels for their trailers. (see pic)

Does anyone have them? If so, are they flashy or reflective in any way?

Curious on what owners think of them verses the old machined aluminum 5 spoke Myco wheels.

I have seen them on several new Mycos. IMHO, stick with what you have Bill. The 5 spokes are MUCH nicer. Also, not sure why, but Myco is now supplying center caps that look as though they are from 4x4 trucks that are just big and open down the center. The nice 4.25 SS center caps are still readily available. (I just bought some.) I don't know why Myco has gone this direction, but they both look terrible compared to the setup like you have. Sorry Jim.

The wheels dont bother me, but the center caps are horrable.

Tim at Myco showed them to me when we picked up the new trailer last October and I did not like them and neither did the wife.

He had several wheels in the office and none of them really jumped out at me and he said they had all voted on this wheel.

Now that I see them on the trailer I like them even less.

I dont have a problem with either wheel..what Im having a problem is how tight of a socket you have to get in there to loosen the damn things up. Also the coating on the old wheels is hard to keep up with...I just cant get them to shine like I want them to..The rest of trailer is the best in the industry by far...and customer service is excellent..Bill really took care of me on this trailer with many upgrades after the fact. For that reason I will always get a Myco. Jeff

Looks to me like these "new" wheels don't shine like the old ones. Am I correct?

agreed, I'm thinking of having mine polished then clear powder coated....Bill and the people though are class acts.
