If you decide to get these, BE CAREFUL. It may be hard to see, but there is no depression in the center of the wheel. It may be hard to explain, but these will be a bitch for the tire shop to mount. Check out some of the tire shops in your area, & let some of the tire installers (& salesmen) look at the wheels. See if they are comfortable with the wheel (more like if they are afraid of scratching the rim). If they hesitate, you may want to try another shop. I know this stuff because I have personally mounted 1 (& only 1 ever) set before. We had 3 people (at the same time) trying to get the tire to properly mount onto the wheel. The "depression" I refer to kind of dips in at the center of the width of the wheel. The Koblenz doesn't dip. Therefore, the tire will try to hold onto the center of the wheel, instead of dropping down quick & easy. Again, hard to explain w/o looking right at it. Perhaps a pic might help.
