Are these good wheels?

I want to get these wheels - 19" Ruff Racing 278 Chrome Staggered Wheels. Are they light? Please tell me anything you know about them. Also where can I get them besides ebay and for how much? Thankyou so much for your help!

I am not sure but I heard that those wheels are made by ADR.

For the price, I don't think they are too bad.

Will there be a noticable difference in acceleration or handling? Also, are Nexen tires any good?

Acceleration; Yes.
Handling; If you get cheap tires there will be a decline.
Tires; Look into some quality tires like Toyo's, Goodyears, Michelins,Pirelli, Yokohama etc...

The seller of the wheels said that the fronts wheels weigh 26-27lbs and the rear weigh 2-3lbs more. Does anyone know how much the 19" OEMs weigh?
