New rims Alcoas?

Wasn't sure on the right forum for this but I'll start it here and if it need to be moved...........
I was looking at new rims for the truck and found I could get a set of Alcoas for a good price from a local tire shop that does many of the big truck tires. The guy said the have a huge weight rating compared to many of the other aftermarket rims available and are of good quality. Has anyone have any experience with Alcoa wheels

I've got them on my truck. Nice rims, but spendy. I'd buy them again though.
