Default Enkei OR52 Vs MB Weapon

I would like some feeback if anyone has these wheels on their car. First runner up are the Enkei Or52 (anthracite). Their are 18x8.5 in a 35+ offset and only weigh 21 lbs per wheel. Going price is about 160-170 per wheel. Next are the MB Weapons, they are 18x9 and weigh 23.5 lbs per wheels. For looks the MB are nice but the extra weight is not campare to 21lbs Enkei's. Please chime in guys

I like the MB weapons more. How much are they per wheel?

Have the MB Weapons in 17x9 on my Stealth, like them a lot...beware the gunmetal is pretty dark, I got the bronze, which is rather dark too. Discounttiredirect.com has a great price on them.

Between the two, I'd go with the MB's. The Enkeis look like.. well, cheap Enkeis.

Yeah, I have seen the enkeis in person. They look shitty mainly because they are so convex - not a good look. Spokes that bow out that way seldom look good. Between that and the giant ring in the center, damn.

I almost went w/ the weapons instead of my current wheels, I'm still undecided....
