Does anyone have any personal knowledge about these?

As I said in another thread, I wanted these as they are the cheapest wheels discount tire stocks @ $65 apiece.

However, I wanted the chrome version. For those it was $125 I believe. I chose Konigs.

I pinged them about weight and they just replied telling me they where 20Lbs.

I guess it is back to Konig Heliums as my first choice.

MB doesn't actually make any wheels; they use other wheels and put their centercaps on them.

I have had two sets, and they were both A-Tech wheels (The A-Tech Eraser and A-Teech Finalspeed, which is what I am running on my xB right now). They are great. I believe they're made in Japan.

20lbs doesn't sound right for that wheel. Wierd???

That is the quoted weight. I decided to order the Konig Heliums at approximately 11 lbs.

So, when they get here (Konig) I will plunk them on the scale.
