MB Wheels (Discount Tires) - 10AE. Is this your car?

It has been a couple of years since I browsed here. I'm on a plan on getting my rx7 resurrected. While I was browsing my iphoto library I came across these pics. I was curious if the owner of this beautiful 10AE is still on this forum. I wanted to know how your wheels have held up over the past couple of years. The date stamp on these pictures was April 2006.

i have those exact wheels in the first pics. they where on my FC but now on my FD
17x8 +28 front
17X9 =27 rear
I like these rims a lot. Will eventually get another pair of the 9's for the front of my FD.

A little known fact. MB doesn't even make them, they're made in Japan and are known as A-Tech Erasers (note the A-Tech cast right on the rim) These rims are pressure cast construction.

The size of the wheels were:
17x8 +28 front (I can't remember if they were 235/40/17 or 225/45/17)
17X9 =27 rear (I remember they are 255/40/17)
