MAE Wheels

I got a question on MAE wheels. I was wondering how heavy the MAE 1 piece wheels are. I would also like to know what you guys think of that brand. Has any of you ever used them, seen them or heard something about them? Here's the web address for the MAE wheels on the C-Class car (W203). I think they look good on the car.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks greg230. I've seen that page before, and it is helpful, but not this time. I just want some wheels that look good on my C 180, as well as being lighter than the ones that come with the car. I was looking at the Carlsson 1/6 evo and the Brabus Monoblock V (1 piece), but I've read in other posts that they weigh a ton each. I'll just keep on looking for good, light wheels for my car.

carlsson 1/16 ultra lights, which are forged i think, are 17lbs... and renntech wheels are light as well.

then again i could be wrong
