I don't think the WBO brochure implies that the alloy wheels and air bags are a package, just that they were both options. Mine has the air bags, factory installed, but steel wheels (I have the original paperwork). The wheel simulators were missing and the broker/dealer installed a new set of Real Wheels simulators before I picked up the motorhome. I promptly removed them when I got home and they haven't seen the light of day since. I prefer the bare wheels. I did install the plastic MB front hubcaps (wished they made some for the rear to cover the axle hub), and since the original spare tire cover was rotten and came apart when I removed it, I installed a Boomerang half hard shell/half soft spare tire cover for a G Wagen (same size tire) with the MB logo on it, and now have a MB grill also. Figure it will sell better when the time comes (soon) and it looks better than the original stuff.
Firestone actually marks the air bags as 100 psi max, 3Trv sets a lower limit and nothing over about 60 psi is needed anyhow.
Note to the OP, if the View doesn't have the wide angle mirrors installed on top of the big rear view mirrors, they are worth the work to install them.

Ouch! $106. I got lucky and found mine for $40 from someone who had the p/n right and the pic wrong, and didn't know what they had.
My comfort level driving this View increased dramatically when I installed the mirrors.
