Default "Sport Max Racing 962" rims

Any of you guys have experience with "Sport Max" racing rims? I saw a few sets on that auction site going for cheap and was thinking about picking up a set. Of course the ad says they clear Brembo brakes and all that jazz, but I'm wondering about the fit and finish of the rim. I'm not expecting the world for $600 (the going rate for a set of 18's) but I don't want any craptacular wheels either. Any of you guys seen these wheels in person or heard about them?

Opinions? Thoughts? ...Jokes?

I've seen them on a couple 240's they looked pretty good. Not sure about performance.

That's what I wanted to know Sherwin. I've seen a few pictures of them on 240's and they looked decent, but I know pics and how an item looks in person can sometimes differ drastically.

Performance-wise, it's a metal wheel so I'm sure it won't disentegrate after a few revolutions...I hope

You saw them "in person" right? You remember what color they were? I'm thinking about a gold set.
