As a discrete analog to Minkowski's theorem on convex bodies, Wills\nconjectured that the Ehrhart coefficients of a centrally symmetric lattice\npolytope with exactly one interior lattice point are maximized by those of the\ncube of side length two. We discuss several counterexamples to this conjecture\nand, on the positive side, we identify a family of lattice polytopes that\nfulfill the claimed inequalities. This family is related to the recently\nintroduced class of l-reflexive polytopes.\n
