Is the below message indeed fraud? |
The website does seems to be a fraud or atleast half baked for that matter. Homepage is practically empty.
It is most likely a fraud or non-affiliated work.
edited: SSL also doesnt appear to be issued for Mahindra, whereas all other sites have the SSLs issued with Organisation information and other basic details

I have doubts on this, per the guy who sold us wheels, OE is 67,1
Proman is also 67,1 both sides. Maybe some other member (Roxx owner) who has access to measuring instrument can check on this. I will also try to measure up and update.
Someone needs to measure this on his Roxx or at service center :) |
I had the Fuel Contra alloy installed and had to add 32mm Proman spacers on all 4 wheels. While I love the look, I'm concerned about how wide it is, especially with the -10 offset. It's already scraping against the front bumper during turns, and for now, the dealer trimmed a bit of the bumper to accommodate it, but I'm not happy with this setup. The dealer is willing to change it but insists that any aftermarket alloy will require at least a 10mm offset. I'm trying to figure out the best way forward. Are there any aftermarket alloys that don’t require spacers, aside from the OEM ones?

Congratulations!
Don't you get wheel covers as standard fitment? |
No, just the hubcap. Imo wheel covers also don't go well with the overall look of the Thar.

I see that you have already got the alloys installed. I used 32mm spacers but yes I do have issues with the tyres touching the bumper at full lock even though I haven't upsized the tyres. As for alloys that can be used without spacers, guess as more members try out different alloys we will have a better idea. Having spoken to few tyre shops in Bangalore they claim not to have come across any alloys that can be used for Thar Roxx without spacers but I don't expect the situation to remain as is for long.

Please do update once you get it inspected. In my case also the noise surfaced post first service. |
Hi I got my issue resolved. A service engineer went for a road test and acknowledged the noise and then they took an hour to resolve it. First tightened all nuts, which did not work, then identified to issue to be a misaligned rubber part in the bonnet. As for the tak tak noise from underneath the steering I was told that it could be loose dashcam hot wiring module which is connected to my fuse box. This seems possible because the installer as far as I recall kept it loose. Will visit the dashcam shop to get this checked. But Mahindra Service was good, they were attentive, polite, checked repeatedly. Pleased with their efforts. Offered me a free washing and cleaning coupon as compensation.

Yes, I've heard the same. The dealer is suggesting at least a 10mm spacer for the other alloys wheels, not sure if there's better. Unfortunately, I need to make this decision today if I need to have this alloy changed.
Have you tried cutting the bumper slightly? That helped ensure it doesn't touch at full lock. Also, do you have any other issues regarding stability or vibrations? I'm worried about warranty and insurance with these 32mm spacers.

Update: NEO Wheels - 18x7.5 Hydra 5x114 BM
That's the only one that doesn't need spacers, I've been told. I'm wondering if there's any way to verify this.
Has anyone found a way to add bottle holders to AX7L variant? Or any DIY/hack to store water bottles. I am currently using a 750ml bottle but it's not enough for a trip.
Anyone considering selling their OEM 18-inch alloy wheels, please DM.

One way would be to utilize the cup holder between the seats with the following type of bottle.

A Car Cup Holder Expander is one solution,

I have booked the MX1 diesel variant, and the waiting period is 12 months. I am considering updating my booking to the MX3 P AT variant. My main concern is the mileage, as I plan to use it as my primary car. On average, I will be driving around 1,000 km per month, with about 500 km per month in bumper-to-bumper traffic in Hyderabad. What mileage are you getting?

How do I cancel my bookings and receive a refund. Pls point me to the relevant link or post regarding this.
Have also booked a couple of XEV 9e Pack 3 but may cancel all. |
For us, delivery timelines was 16Jan-15Feb. Vehicle was dispatched from factory on 25Jan, around a week in transit, followed by delivery which took 3-4 days. CRM/SA can track real time dispatch status of vehicle. Cancelling you can do online, else dealer can initiate the same. For my XUV700 booking, had to send a mail and follow up with Mahindra support, around a weeks time including refund. Below snip shows status once vehicle is invoiced, and cancellation.
