Some of those look pretty nice.
I think Dan runs those on his XJ but he just got the standard gloss black finish. I remember him saying they were pretty tough wheels.

I ran a set of these on 35" boggers... My beadlocks sold few weeks before the 2011 Crawl, and I needed a cheap set of wheels so I could run the boggers for this trip...
I hot the cheapest aero wheels I could (gloss black with a yellow pin stripe) they were about $250 shipped for a set, which isn't too bad...
They looked to be a tough wheel, the spokes and center section where they bolt on were 1/4" thick! I had good expectations... Turns out they suck! The lip of the wheel was the worst part, my new set of wheels after a weekend at Harlan, looked like a set of steel wheels, Tim the Hard Struggler had been using for a couple years. I had bounced up a ledge, and heard my driver rear tire loose air Fast!, I was mad and thought I cut a tire with no spare... Turns out I took the lip of the wheel and inverted it into a V... You could have set a piece of 1" angle between the rim and tire bead... I hammered it back sorta round, aired up and kept wheeling...
I sold the boggers a few weeks later... Didn't even consider keeping the "used for 3 days" Aero Racing wheels... They were "free" with tire purchase
I won't buy them again, not to mention they come with a big sticker on rim that says "not DOT approved" ...one pothole and it'd break!
Spend maybe $100 more for some Cragars or some other cheap steel wheel...

Funny enough....I saw these wheels on How It's Made (pretty cool show on Science channel) the same night you posted this....from the clips they showed their stuff seemed quality, but then again I saw them make one wheel which could have easily been the ''cream of the crop'' for the show!
