Nice wagon, though
Thanks. Yes, I agree to each their own. I stuck with the stock size to save weight. That wheel stayle and color works with my black color wagon. Already got unsoliciated compliments on the wheels from the car wash place that I frequent and from a waiter where I have my usually breakfast.

I hear you, but then again I can't think of a product that isn't a replica in this price point that is.

mandrus wheels are as are oz racing off the top of my head. 1000$ for the mandrus and about 1500$ for the oz wheels
bear in mind im not bashing the wheels, i was actually thinking of getting a set but not being hubcentric kills the deal. wont ever run spacers on my cars. its a shame i really liked the weight and style of the wheels

I understand. Personally, I have had to use hubcentric rings before on other cars when I got new wheels and never had a problem.

Doesn't need spacers, hub rings are the abs plastic rings that center the wheel if the wheel isn't hubcentric.

good friend of mine just bought mandrus wheels for his xfire. hubcentric and mercedes specs. the weights in 18" front was 25lbs and rear 19" 27 lbs . not as light as the konigs but no added parts either. that was just an example as you couldn't think of any .. forgestar wheels lighter than the konigs and hubcentric. 1500 a set. apples to apples then!

D2, I think you and I need to talk wheels... I'm on the hunt for some that will fit an '07 C230 without getting HRE/BBS expensive.

I got the polished milligram and am so glad that I did. Great price for a lighter and better looking wheel.

Awesome to see some very nice 18's.. everyone goes 19 / 20.. I have destroyed both sizes, and yet my 18's are as round as they were when new. 19's and 20's just do not like enormous frickin pot holes. Thanks for a nice 18!!!!!!
