Quality/Strength of MB Wheels

[Quasi242]

I am looking to purchase a new set of wheels for my prerunner project. I need to run a 17" rim to clear the 13" disk brakes that are stock on the Ford 9.75 axle that I will be installing. I was recently in my local Discount Tire and saw that they had their house brand "MB Wheels" on promotion for $100.00 per wheel. This is a great price for a 17" wheel, but I have not been able to find any information regarding the quality/strength of these wheels. I understand that they are cast and not forged, but are they on par with the cast American Racing Outlaw II, or Mickey Thompson Classic II Wheels? Also, does anyone know the per weight and wheel load rating on these wheels (their website does not list this information)? In particular, I am looking at the 72 or the Razor.

i'd go back to the dealer for the specs on those wheels. they should have (or be able to get) all the info you need on them really. if not, i'd shop the better known brands and let that dealer know why you aren't buying theirs.
