MB Motoring Wheels?

Anybody here have any experience with this manufacturer? Are their wheels heavy? How's the overall quality?

I know that they are the brand that Discount Tire carries. I know a few members here and at FTW have them. I have never heard anything bad about them.

I just got a set for my Expy a few weeks ago. Not sure about their weight size-for-size compared to other brands (I replaced stock 16's with 17's), but the overall quality seems on par with other wheels brands I've had in the past. Also, I put a set of MB's (silver painted) on my Accord several years ago and never had any problem with the finish coming off, discoloring, etc. My new ones are machined finish and look excellent (nice and shiny...almost chrome-like).

Not sure who manufactures them, but the distributor is Discount Tire (www.tires.com).

Ive had them on my tuck now for about a year with no problems. The chrome is pretty tough, it doesnt seem to scratch easially or anything. Overall I'm pleased with them.
