Hmm ive never heard of those brands of rims.
For 400 bucks i wouldnt expect high quality, but I cant see you abusing them offroad so theres really no need for top notch strength and quality

nope they won't be abused... i don't have much experience with rims, but the castings look spot on, there isn't any sharp edges, and they were very well balanced according to the tire guys... i really don't care... they look good to me, and i think they were a decent enough deal.

Most of the time the quality of a rim isnt just the cosmetics of it. The way a rim is built, and the "cheapness" of the actual aluminum.
For your application though they will work great.

Keep checking ebay Morris! Even for eagle alloy rims you can buy them for fairly cheap from a tire shop!
