Default To Good To Be True..? Speedy Wheels Pls Help!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT





Just recently found these wheels on ebay and they have a very nice price, but I personally dont know much about these wheels, and havent ever seen them on a 350. With that bieng said, I called the company that is doing to auction on ebay(www.bestwheel.com in Florida) and had the guy quote me a price shipped to my door and it was :

$1699 Shipped

Speedy 505 Wheels
19x9.5 ET20 Rears - 275/30R19
19x8.5 ET30 Fronts - 245/35R19
Hankook Zrated Tires (crappy tires, yes, but for the price?)

The man @ bestwheels.com assured me that i could not find a better price and after searching a bit i got a quote from a dealer in Georgia that wanted $1430
for wheels only which makes me think that maybe this guy in florida(bestwheel.com) may be just cutting a pretty good price?
Never the less I really like the wheels for the fact that i dont really intend on spending $3k for a set of wheels so it would be nice to pick these up if in fact it was a good deal and not some rip off cheapo wheel?

IF anyone has any info or insight into this matter I would appreciate as much info as I can get...

Should I purchase these wheels?
Are these wheels worth messing with?
Would I be better off saving up and buying a decent wheel?

They look good, reminds me of the HP EVOs. You might want to consider getting 275/35 in the back instead.

Not a reputable brand name... you get what you pay for, so i'd invest in some nice quality forged wheels. Plus the tire sizes are off. If you run those sizes and you have TCS or VDC, it WILL upset them.
