Mandrus Millennium Wheels?

http://www.mandruswheels.com/

I heard this is good rim that won't bend, is this true?..does anyone on here own some Mandrus Rims..

I have Mercedes E320 2003, looking at getting either the 19's or 20's on my ride within the next month..

I'm undecided what size rim, I here so many contradiction stories.. that 20's requires for you to adjust your front end?

It's my guess (from reading similar wheel stories here and at other forums) that when a person puts on other sized wheels that are not recommended by MB, the alignment goes off and there are no specs to use that will fix the problem.

Hopefully someone here with more concrete knowledge of this will post and save you some headaches.

Well the good thing is that wheels is specific to your vehicle. It is hub centric unlike most aftermarket wheels, it accepts your TPMS sensors (if you have), and accepts your factory center cap. In terms of bending or cracking, they are like most good 1pc wheels, they are fairly strong.

that is not true, my friends got that rims on his E55 and yes, they bent ok, that Mandus rims is look pretty nice and quality from outside, but its nothing beter than those aftermarket middle class rims out there. Just..... watch out for you tire pressure and you save,

I have them in chrome, 20x8.5 up front and 20x10 at the Rear. I gets lots of looks. They fit great, run on the hwy at 100++mph no problem. However being 20's they can bend, I hit a real canyon of pot hole going 50mph, and the rim now has a flat spot. The postive side is if they where 3pcs rims they would have destroyed them.

Kevinle ...when you say watch for tire pressue you mean keep it on the high side or low side?
