Are these good wheels?

I'm sure. I weighed them myself subtracting the weight of the tire. If you do a search another forum member posted the same thing. It's not so unbelievable if you remember that the oem 19s are very narrow (8" front/8.5" rear) and forged. The cheapo ruff wheels are cast, chromed, have big spokes, and are wider. Don't forget that with wider tires also comes even more weight.
Personally I would never get any wheel over 25 lbs, even if they cost next to nothing. Unless you don't care about performance...
