Wheels for Aero

Hello all. I just bought a 2000 9-5 Aero 5-speed with 7k miles for $31k. I hope that is a decent price. My main question is about the wheels. Currently it is fitted with Ronel LV wheels with Dunlop SP9000 tires. I may be able to get the dealer to swap for the BBS RK II wheels from a demo car at no charge. Any opinions on the relative merits of those 2 wheels? The Ronel LV is a 1-piece design, vs the BBS being 2-piece. I don't know which is better. Ronel says that the LV weighs 19 lbs. Other posts on this board have said that the BBS RK II weighs 21.5 lbs. Anyone know the weight of the Viking wheels? Anyone know what tires come standard on the BBS wheel upgrade? Are they the hard-to-find Michelins? I have not seen the potential swap-out wheels in person, so I don't know what tires they have. I'd appreciate any info or comments. Thanks!
