Question about Ruff Racing wheels...specifically the 279's.

Hey guys...couple quick questions. Do any of you guys know the quality of Ruff Racing wheels? Also...a reputable place to buy them? And, how do you think these 279's would look on my CL?

Junk.

Ebay is littered with them. I looked into them many many moons ago when I first got my E-Class. Back before I knew the difference between quality and crap.
