Motegi wheels - are they any good?

so I found a set of new 16" Motegi MR7's in Gunmetal that would look pretty sweet on my Neptune Blue max. The price is definately right, but I'm skeptical. They seem very inexpensive. Then again they are only 16" wheels. I'm staying stock size due that I just bought some Kumho Ecsta ASX tires, and I think the 16" wheels being lighter will be better for acceleration (less rotational mass).

What do you guys think about Motegi? I wish I had search function, but I don't so that's why I'm asking you all. Sorry if this is a repost.

O, here are the ones I'm talking about.

I've seen tons of Hondas w/ Motegi rims. Not sure about their quality but they seem pretty cheap.

I think all Motegi wheels are junk (heavy and poor quality)...but I don't have any personal experience with those particular wheels.

That style is played out. Regardless of quality or brand, Motegi's don't come in wide enough widths either.
