Default Ruff Racing wheels

hey guys i dont really know anything about this company but i was checking out ebay, and saw these wheels http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/19-G3...spagenameZWDVW

first off do these weigh more then stock?
second what are your personal opinions on these wheels? cheapo junk, or good for the money.

also do u think these will meet the edge of the fender and the rear quarter panel even with running 245 35 19 in the front and 275 30 19 in the rear?

i was thinking of maybe painting them a glossy black with that polished lip

thanks guys,

i have seen them in 18" with the hyperblack finish, and i think they look awesome. the offsets set the wheels flush with the fenders.

Speaking of Ruff wheels...any word on when the new styles will be available? I'm very interested in seeing what they look like.

where did you get those numbers? I'm pretty sure they weigh over 30 pounds each. Might really depend on the finish though. Chrome weighs more then the other finishes.

I weighed them on a scale. And yes they are not as light as others out there but they also do not cost what those others do, so it depends on what you are looking for.
